At Urban Industry we recommend / Ideal For

• The primary choice for remote trails where weather resistance and movement are essential
• Ideal for those who value a utilitarian aesthetic combined with practical storage for city commuting
• The heavy-duty ripstop sections make these suitable for environments that demand tough, snag-resistant clothing
• The breathable fabric blend ensures comfort in spring and autumn, while the relaxed cut allows for base layer integration in winter

Our Style, Fit & Sizing Recommendations

• These pants are cut to provide a structured silhouette that tapers slightly towards the hem
• The integrated belt allows for fine-tuning at the waist, while hem adjusters let you customise the leg opening
• We recommend taking your usual size for a standard fit, or sizing up if you prefer extra room through the thigh for climbing activities

Washing & Care Instructions

• Use a cool cycle to preserve the technical cotton-nylon fibres and the integrity of the ripstop panels
• Chemicals in softeners can degrade the performance of synthetic fibres and affect the durability of the hardware
• Avoid the high heat of a tumble dryer to prevent shrinkage and maintain the original shape of the articulated knees
• The dense weave of the fabric allows for easy spot cleaning with a damp cloth for minor dirt or dust

Purple Mountain Observatory Terrain Pant - Our FAQs

1. Are these pants waterproof?
   While the tight cotton-nylon weave naturally resists light moisture and wind, they are not fully waterproof. They are designed for breathability and rapid drying during active use.

2. What is the benefit of ripstop fabric?
   Ripstop uses a reinforced crosshatch pattern that prevents small snags or holes from spreading, making the pants significantly more durable in rough terrain.

3. Do the magnetic zips stay closed?
   Yes, the YKK magnetic pulls are designed to stay secure during movement while allowing for quick, one-handed access to your pockets.

4. Is the belt removable?
   The grosgrain belt is integrated into the waistband for maximum security and comfort, ensuring it never shifts or bunches under a backpack hip belt.
