A tailored women’s cut of the Men's Supertrousers.

• The Women's Supertrousers are the result of giving traditional Cactus functionality the feminine touch of an experienced women’s apparel designer. We present to you our solution to the demands of those women who need real workwear but want to look good in it. These are the perfect all-rounders, whether you are trapping stoats for DOC, working the land or travelling the globe.
  
  Like all Cactus products, these are made to the highest quality standards right here in New Zealand. We use our proven European C-Canvas and YKK zips and incorporate carefully considered design features such as articulated knees and strategic bar tacking for strength and wear-ability. Because of this we can confidently offer a lifetime warranty on materials and workmanship.
  
  When you first put these on you might be surprised by the stiffness of the fabric. Have faith – after a bit of use they will “relax” and mold to the shape of your body, ending up being possibly your  most comfortable item of clothing  - and they’ll stay that way; truly pants that wear in, not out.

• Essentially, Canvas Supertrousers and Supershorts require a bit of a wear-in period to soften the fabric.
• The first three or so washes should be done by hand, then you should be right to machine wash.
• Use cold water with a mild powder detergent, rinse thoroughly, very gentle or no spin and line-dry.
• Do not iron, dry clean, spin-dry or use bleach.
• When new, the stiffness of the fabric means it creases in points rather than soft folds - washing them in an aggressive or hot machine can cause damage on the crease points.
• Our canvas also has a waterproofing agent which, if washed in an aggressive or hot machine, can shift and discolour. This will appear as white lines which cannot be removed.
• Washing inside out will minimise lighter coloured creases on the outside of the fabric, but won’t remove stains quite as well.
• Drip dry without creases (it won't take long as the polyester in the fabric doesn't hold much water)
• Close zips while washing (they'll last longer)
• Note that all the colours will lighten with use and washing as the natural cotton content of the fabric won't take a dye fixative in the same way as a 100% synthetic fabric.
• If you get attacked by a pig and the fabric gets holed while saving your reproductive potential send them back and we'll patch ‘em for a small fee
• If you are still not sure, give us a call or flick us an email
