Fit
There has been a good deal of thought put into the fit
and comfort of the pants and this can be seen with the
5 ways of adjusting and a sixth that does it
automatically. Starting from the top then! You have the
DRYWAY liner and that comes up over the waistline and
is elasticised by way of a draw cord to make a full seal
at the waist. This is aided by the fact the cord draws
against three soft bands of rubber running on the
inside of the liner making grip and positioning very
secure.
You have the braces that are fully detachable and use a
traditional four clip system with a buckle adjustment
on both sides. The waist band can be adjusted by a
Velcro pull strap and flap making for a millimetre
perfect snug fit around the top. The fastening for the
pants is a double hook and eye complimented with a
traditional zipper.
At the knees you front of each knee section has soft
folded and gentle elastic sections for knee bending
without the shin material coming up when you sit.
At the lower leg there is as Velcro strap and zipper
combination. You get the right seal that you want with
the Velcro strap when the zipper is closed. I found that
this will also act as a bit of vent, depending on what
boots you have on. A great touch is the small Velcro
disc on the inside of the zipper section, this lets you
attach the strap and stop it flapping about while the zip
is fully open.
