Consumer Contract Regulations (CCR)

What are the Consumer Contract Regulations?

Under the "Consumer Contract Regulations, you have the right to cancel an order for goods made at a distance. These rights start from the moment you place your order and ends 14 days from the day you receive your goods.

Your right to cancel

Your right to cancel an order for goods starts the moment you place your order and ends 14 days from the day you receive your goods.

This 14 day period is the time you have to decide whether to cancel, you then have a further 14 days to actually send the goods back.

Your Right to a Refund under CCR

You may get a refund within 14 days of either, the trader getting the goods back, or you providing evidence of having returned the goods (for example, a proof of postage receipt from the post office), whichever is the sooner.

A deduction can be made if the value of the goods has been reduced as a result of you handling the goods more than was necessary. The extent to which you can handle the goods is the same as it would be if you were assessing them in a shop.

Refunding the cost of delivery

The trader has to refund the basic delivery cost of getting the goods to you in the first place, so if you opted for enhanced service e.g. guaranteed next day, it only has to refund the basic cost.

Exemptions

There are some circumstances where the Consumer Contracts Regulations does not give you a right to cancel. These include CDs, DVDs or software if you've broken the seal on the wrapping, perishable items and tailor-made or personalised items. They also include goods with a seal for health protection and hygiene reasons that have been broken or tampered with, e.g. Climbing Equipment and PPE.

My goods are broken

If you feel that your item is defective/broken/faulty and it is still under warranty, please contact our Customer Support team([email protected])with as much information as possible with regards to the fault, including photos if applicable.

We want to reduce our impact on the environment as much as possible, the first step for this is reducing our waste. Therefore, please note that we will always offer a professional repair in the first instance; if the product can be repaired.

This may involve your product being sent back to our suppliers or to a professional repair company. Please note that due tovaried procedures, warranty claims and repairs can take between 2 and 4 weeks to be concluded

Montane Men's Cetus Pants Black

Season:SS26

Brand:Montane

Code:MCPA-BLA

What are the Cetus Pants?

They're lightweight and highly packable waterproof over trousers that utilise Montane's innovative Petrichor technology for breathable waterproof protection, making them suitable for use in changeable conditions. Minimal yet functional, they're the ideal protective layer to keep stashed in your rucksack or running vest, ready for when the heavens open, when hiking, trekking, trail running or walking the dog.

What are they made from?

The Cetus Pants are constructed from Montane's innovative Petrichor 3L waterproof technology. Montane's Petrichor uses 100% recycled nylon fabrics in a 3-layer sandwich construction to deliver lightweight and comfortable shell trousers that are noticeably quieter to wear. The 30-denier nano ripstop face fabric provides lightweight durability, whilst the 20-denier solution-dyed tricot lining offers efficient moisture transportation and next-to-skin comfort. Sandwiched in the middle of these lightweight fabrics is the super-thin Petrichor membrane, which is both waterproof and windproof. All fabrics used to construct the Cetus are free from harmful PFC/PFAS chemicals and are also Oeko-Tex® and Bluesign® approved for extra reassurance that the trousers were created responsibly.

Petrichor delivers exceptional breathability and waterproof protection for challenging mountain missions and all manner of wet-weather adventures. It scores a waterproof hydrostatic head rating of 20,000mm and a breathability rating of RET 7, meaning it excels in challenging ascents in adverse conditions, where it will remain breathable to keep you dry inside and out.

Montane's Petrichor membrane does things a little differently from traditional waterproof trousers. For those unfamiliar with waterproof clothing technology, conventional waterproofs rely on hydrophobic membranes with thousands of tiny, microscopic holes in them and a difference in either temperature or pressure inside the trousers to pull water vapour through the membrane to allow it to escape. Though widely used, this technology can be hindered if the DWR on the face fabric of your trousers fail and 'wets out' or the tiny holes become blocked over time by dirt and skin oils from sweat, resulting in a very clammy, gross-feeling waterproof trousers that might feel as if they’re leaking.

Petrichor, in contrast, is a completely solid non-porous hydrophilic membrane that actively breathes to physically transport moisture away from the body and damp layers, pulling it out into the air where it can escape. It utilises channels within the material to pull moisture through the membrane to continuously manage your microclimate, keeping you comfortably dry all day long, an effect that increases in strength as you work harder - the tougher the trail gets, the more breathable the trousers become. This innovative design delivers supercharged breathability and allows this super-thin solid membrane to be not only waterproof but windproof too. Neat right?

The trousers are finished with a PFC-free DWR (durable water repellent) to encourage water, dirt and snow to bead off the material, further enhancing the jacket's protective capabilities.

For those of you who are wondering, PFAS/PFC's are also known as 'forever chemicals' because they stay permanently in the environment, bioaccumulate in animals and cause lasting damage to our ecosystems. Due to their harmful nature, many companies are working to eliminate their use in products and manufacturing processes. Montane's Petrichor technology is at the forefront of responsible, highly breathable waterproof clothing and is helping pave the way towards a PFC/PFAS chemical-free future.

What are their features?

An elasticated waist with a drawcord adjustment provides lasting comfort and a secure fit over various layers and trouser styles.

3/4-length YKK Aquaguard Natulon recycled zippers sit on the outer sides, with a two-way opening designed to provide excellent ventilation. For example, you could leave the bottom half zipped up and the top half unzipped to get more airflow around the legs. They also allow you to smoothly slide them over chunky hiking boots and bicycle shoes if you need to quickly put them on in sudden downpours. The bottom hems are adjustable, allowing you to get a secure fit around various walking boots, wellies or trainers.

Innovative Barrier technology at the top and bottom hems actively combats water ingress by preventing the wicking of external moisture throughout the day, keeping you drier in periods of prolonged wet conditions.

Thoughtfully designed offset seams throughout the trousers improve durability across the seams, enhancing comfort levels and extending the trouser's longevity, whilst minimal taped seams reduce weight and help increase the breathability of the trousers.

Features

A minimisation of seams and tape improves FGB (Full Garment Breathability), durability, reduces weight and construction
OFFSET seam intersections improve construction, durability and comfort
STORM GUARD inner side zip placket
BARRIER TECHNOLOGY at all apertures and hems helps prevent water ingress (stops wicking)
¾ length YKK Aquaguard Natulon recycled side zip offers easy access and adaptable ventilation
Elasticated waist with elasticated drawcord adjustment provides security and adaptability
Adjustable hem for adaptable fit over boots or shoes
Regular Fit for a standard fit for core outdoor activities, and maximum coverage for wet weather protection
Available in regular, short and long leg
