Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your ski pants, store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. When cleaning, avoid harsh detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating from the polyester fabric. If the water-repellent performance begins to decrease after heavy use, consider using a technical garment re-proofer to restore its functionality. Always ensure the waist and leg closures are properly secured before starting your day on the slopes for maximum protection.
