Mountain Equipment Ibex trousers

Mountain Equipment Ibex trousers


Postby Low Level Walker » Tue Oct 05, 2021 9:39 am

Hi there. Does anyone own this particular brand of trousers, if so can I ask how you wash and proof them?

They are a soft shell trousers and only provide a light DWR. I have Nikwax Tech Wash and TX Direct which I was planning on using, however I see there is a specific Nikwax product for soft shell products, called Softshell proof.

I am kind of loathe to fork out on yet another Nikwax product. Do you think using my products above, Tech Wash and TX Direct would be ok, or should I buy the specific product, Softshell proof?

Any feedback or comments gratefully received.
