How often do you have to rewaterproof, as ones I got Xmas 2009 started leaking in March 2010, I went out, and couldn't believe my under trousers were so wet, not just a leak, both legs just soaked. Such a shame as I had been recomending these to everyone, as they were so comfy, and the pockets so useful for dog walking and at dog agility events. Bit embarrassed hope the people I said should buy them don't have leaky ones as well.

It shouldnt need to be done too often but it depends how often you use them. Be carefull how you wash them - dont use normal detergent as this will destroy the waterproofing! Only wash them in pure soap, Nikwax or Grangers recommended for Peter Storm cleaner then re proof them afterwards if necessary.

Hello,
Sorry to hear about your experience. It is difficult to quantify how much you need to reproof. If you wear them once a week I would reproof, every month. If you wear them daily, maybe once a week/fortnight. It also depends on how you use them.
Peter Storm’s 2-in-1 wash both cleans and reproofs your outdoor gear, enhancing the water and stain repellency of your technical fabrics in one wash cycle.
