FAQs
What is the waterproof rating of these pants?
The pants are waterproof up to 10,000mm, making them suitable for heavy rain and snow conditions.
How much warmth do these pants provide?
They offer thermal properties tested up to -30°C, providing significant warmth for cold environments.
Are these pants suitable for intense skiing where I might overheat?
They are breathable up to 5,000g and feature mesh ventilation zips. For very high-intensity activities, managing temperature might require careful layering and use of the ventilation.
What are RECCO® reflectors for?
RECCO® reflectors are an avalanche rescue system. They bounce back a signal to RECCO® detectors used by ski patrols, helping to locate individuals in case of an avalanche.
How do I maintain the waterproof and breathable properties?
Wash using a technical cleaner for waterproof fabrics and consider reapplying a DWR treatment periodically. Avoid fabric softeners and harsh detergents.
Can I adjust the fit of the waist?
Yes, the pants feature an adjustable waist for a customizable and comfortable fit.
What do the scuff guards do?
Scuff guards are durable fabric panels on the inside of the ankle designed to protect the pants from fraying and tears caused by ski boots or edges.
Troubleshooting
Pants feel cold
Ensure you are wearing appropriate thermal base layers underneath. The tested insulation is effective but works best in conjunction with layering.
Snow entering at the ankles
Ensure the integrated snow gaiters are properly pulled down over your ski boots and are snug. Adjustments to boot fit may also help.
Reduced waterproof performance over time
Re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish to the outer fabric according to the product's instructions. Use technical wash products designed for waterproof apparel during cleaning.
Pants feel too warm during activity
Open the mesh ventilation zips to increase airflow and regulate temperature. Consider a lighter base layer if the conditions are not extremely cold.
