How water repellent is the component in the reinforcement zones of the MT500 trousers?
These trousers have water-repellent inserts (front of ankle, buttocks) that let the water slide off the fabric's surface. Please note, this does not mean WATERPROOF.
The water repellency prevents the trousers from getting wet too quickly. However, this won’t be enough to keep you dry if you’re in steady rain. To do this, you will need a pair of over-trousers like the MT500 model (ref. 8736465).
Water repellency can be reactivated using a reactivating water repellent spray (ref. 8800346).
