FAQs
What is DRYVENT™ technology?
DRYVENT™ is a proprietary technology used by The North Face that provides waterproof and breathable protection. It ensures that external moisture like rain and snow cannot penetrate the fabric, while internal moisture (sweat) can escape, keeping you dry and comfortable.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the size chart provided by The North Face and SKIMS for accurate measurements. The pants feature a cinched waist and a shorter inseam, so consider your waist measurement and desired fit.
Can these pants be worn for activities other than skiing?
Yes, the pants are versatile and can be worn for snowboarding, hiking, or any outdoor activity in cold, wet, or snowy conditions. Their stylish design also makes them suitable for casual wear in winter.
What is the main difference between this collaboration and standard TNF pants?
The key difference lies in the aesthetic and fit. The TNF x SKIMS collaboration integrates SKIMS' signature flattering fit, including a cinched waist and tailored silhouette, with The North Face's technical outdoor construction.
How should I care for the seam taping?
To maintain the integrity of the seam taping, avoid harsh chemicals, high heat, and fabric softeners during washing and drying. Follow the recommended care instructions closely.
Are these pants insulated?
The product description does not specify insulation. These pants are designed for waterproof and breathable protection and are likely intended to be layered with base layers for warmth, depending on the conditions.
Troubleshooting
Water is leaking through the fabric
Ensure the garment has been washed correctly without fabric softener and has not been ironed. Check for any damage to the fabric or seam tape. Re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish if necessary, following product instructions.
Pants feel stiff or less breathable
This may be due to accumulated dirt or residue. Wash the pants according to care instructions. Avoid fabric softeners. Ensure the garment is completely dry before storing.
Zipper is sticking
Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a wax-based product to the zipper teeth to help it glide smoothly.
