FAQs
Are these trousers suitable for extreme cold?
Yes, the Dare 2B Ski Trousers are designed with high warmth and insulating properties, making them suitable for cold winter conditions and skiing.
How do I ensure a good fit?
The trousers feature an adjustable waistline and belt loops for a customizable fit. The snug fit is designed for performance, but the adjustable features allow for some personalization.
Can I wear layers underneath?
Yes, while they have a snug fit, they are designed to be worn over base layers. Consider sizing up if you prefer a looser fit or plan to wear very thick thermal layers.
What does 'ARED 30/30' mean?
ARED 30/30 is Dare 2b's proprietary waterproof and breathable fabric technology. It indicates a hydrostatic head of 30,000mm (waterproofness) and a breathability rating of 30,000/m²/24hrs (breathability).
How should I clean the snow gaiters?
The snow gaiters are part of the trouser leg. Clean them by wiping with a damp cloth. If heavily soiled, wash the entire garment according to the care instructions.
Are these trousers PFC-free?
Yes, the product description states that the fabric is PFC-free, PFOA-free, and PFOS-free, indicating an environmentally conscious manufacturing process.
What is the main benefit of the articulated knee?
The articulated knee allows for greater flexibility and a wider range of motion, which is essential for comfortable and unrestricted movement while skiing or engaging in other activities.
Troubleshooting
Water is not beading off the fabric
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) finish may need to be reapplied. Clean the trousers and follow instructions for a DWR spray or wash-in treatment.
Reduced breathability
Ensure the garment is clean. Dirt and oils can clog the membrane. Wash according to care instructions and consider using a technical wash detergent.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to move
Clean the zipper teeth gently with a damp cloth and a small brush. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax specifically designed for zippers.
