Product Overview
The Portwest Ripstop Combat Trousers are a robust choice for the professional who requires their workwear to withstand more than just the average daily commute. Engineered with a specialised ripstop weave, these trousers are designed to handle the rigours of a demanding workday without succumbing to the typical wear and tear that compromises standard garments. They provide a practical solution for those seeking a balance between a professional appearance and functional resilience.
Key Features
- Polycotton Ripstop Fabric: The reinforced weave is engineered to prevent small snags or nicks from developing into large tears, significantly extending the lifespan of the garment.
- Combat Style Design: Features multiple pockets that provide essential storage for tools and personal items, ensuring your equipment is always within reach.
- Unisex Fit: A versatile cut that ensures comfort and a professional silhouette for all team members.
- Comprehensive Size Range: Available in a wide variety of waist sizes and leg lengths to ensure a precise and comfortable fit.
Design & Performance
Constructed from a medium-weight polycotton blend, these trousers offer the breathability of cotton paired with the durability of polyester. The fabric feels substantial and sturdy, providing confidence when working in environments where minor abrasions are common. The ripstop technology is the standout feature here; by incorporating thicker reinforcement threads at regular intervals, the fabric effectively localises any damage, preventing the 'running' of tears that often ruins traditional work trousers.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
This item is available with both print and embroidery customisation. Our embroidery service delivers a textured, premium appearance that is ideal for company logos and individual names. This method is particularly durable and stands up to repeated washing without fading, maintaining a sharp look over time. Alternatively, print customisation is better suited to large, bold designs and offers a broader colour range for high-impact branding. Our dedicated in-house team, established in 1976, handles all customisation from our facility in Telford to ensure the highest standards of quality.
Use Cases
These trousers are designed for professionals in sectors such as construction, logistics, maintenance, and engineering. The neutral black colourway makes them an excellent choice for corporate uniforms where a smart yet rugged appearance is required for site visits or manual tasks.

Practical Advice
To ensure maximum comfort throughout the day, we recommend cross-referencing your measurements with our size guide. Given the structured nature of the ripstop fabric, ensuring a correct fit in the waist and leg will allow for better ease of movement when bending or kneeling on the job.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and longevity of your combat trousers, it is essential to follow the specific instructions provided on the internal care label. Adhering to these guidelines ensures the ripstop fabric remains resilient and the garment retains its shape.
Regular washing as per the label helps to remove dirt and debris that can otherwise act as an abrasive against the polycotton fibres, leading to premature wear. Ensuring the trousers are washed correctly will also preserve the depth of the black colour.
We advise against the use of harsh chemicals or bleaches unless specified, as these can break down the integrity of the polycotton blend and weaken the reinforced weave, ultimately reducing the protective qualities of the trousers.
