FIT & SIZING
The Forest Pants III have a slimmer fit through the waist, seat and legs, sitting closer to your body than a roomier pair of outdoor trousers. The 4-way stretch fabric keeps them comfortable and flexible, while the articulated knees give you extra room to move when walking, crouching or climbing.
Fit: Slimmer through the waist, seat and legs for a closer fit
Waist & seat: Sit closer to the body without feeling restrictive
Leg: Slimmer cut that follows the shape of your legs without being skin-tight
Movement: 4-way stretch fabric moves with you as you walk, bend and climb
Knees: Articulated to make crouching and kneeling more comfortable
Sizing: These run slim, so size up from your usual jeans size for the intended fit

What is the Swazi Warranty?
All Swazi garments are unconditionally warranted against faulty fabric and workmanship. We reserve the right to repair or replace at our discretion. We have a specific page for more details on our warranty and repairs and returns policies here.
Will I have to pay customs on an international order?
International customers are solely responsible for payment of all duties, import taxes and customs fees.
These fees are not included in the cost of shipping and we are unable to provide estimates of what this will cost as it will depend entirely on the garment and what charges your own government imposes.
Please check with your local customs agent for more details.
Can I change or cancel my order?
We process orders very quickly, which means in most cases, we can't make changes after an order has been placed. We definitely cannot make changes after we have sent a shipping confirmation email with a tracking link.
In saying that, if you have already placed an order and would like to cancel or change it, please email us service@swazi.co.nz or call 64 6 368 4822 within 2 hours of placing your order. We will do the best we can.
