FAQs
Are these trousers suitable for extreme cold weather?
Yes, the trousers are designed with features like microfibre filling and fleece lining, and are thermal tested to -20°C, making them suitable for cold conditions.
How do I ensure a proper fit?
The trousers feature a part-elasticated waist, belt loops, and adjustable braces to help you achieve a comfortable and secure fit.
Can I wear these for activities other than skiing?
While optimized for skiing and snowboarding due to features like snow gaiters, their warmth and water resistance make them suitable for other cold-weather outdoor activities.
What is the purpose of the side zip ankles?
The side zip ankles make it easier to put on and take off the trousers over ski or snowboard boots, and can also help with ventilation.
How should I clean these ski trousers?
They can be machine washed on a gentle cycle at 30°C. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and dry cleaning. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry.
What does DWR finish mean?
DWR stands for Durable Water Repellent. It's a coating applied to the fabric that makes water bead up and roll off the surface, helping to keep you dry from light rain and snow.
Are there other color options available?
This specific model is available in Blue. Other models within the Mountain Warehouse range may offer different color choices.
Troubleshooting
Trousers feel too tight around the waist.
Adjust the part-elasticated waistband and utilize the belt loops if preferred. Ensure braces are not overtightened.
Snow entering around the boot cuffs.
Ensure the snow gaiters are correctly positioned over your ski boots and that the touch fastening closure is secured tightly.
Reduced water repellency after several washes.
Re-apply a DWR treatment spray suitable for outdoor clothing after washing and drying according to care instructions.
Zips are stiff or difficult to move.
Gently clean the zip area with a damp cloth to remove any dirt or residue. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax if necessary.
