How do I ensure a good fit with my ski boots?
The trousers have an ankle zip and snow gaiters designed to fit securely over ski boots, preventing snow entry.
How should I wash these ski trousers?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent, avoiding fabric softener. Tumble dry on low or hang dry. Consider re-applying a DWR finish after washing.
Can I wear these trousers in very cold weather?
The trousers offer good protection, but for very cold conditions, layering with thermal base layers is recommended.

Troubleshooting
Water is seeping through the fabric.
The durable water-repellent (DWR) finish may have worn off. Re-apply a DWR treatment according to the product instructions. Ensure all seams and zips are intact.
Snow is getting into the boots.
Check that the snow gaiters are fully extended and snugly fitted around your ski boots. Ensure the ankle zips are securely closed.
Trousers feel restrictive during movement.
Ensure the size is correct and that you are wearing appropriate base layers. The elastane in the fabric provides stretch, but proper sizing is key.
Zips are difficult to move.
Ensure the zips are clean and free of debris. Gently try to work the zip back and forth. A small amount of wax can help smooth operation if needed.
