Full details
The Mountain Warehouse Moon II Ski Trousers are designed for female winter sports enthusiasts who require reliable thermal protection and moisture management on the slopes. These trousers offer an impressive thermal rating down to -20°C thanks to Isotherm insulation, making them an ideal choice for cold-climate skiing and snowboarding. While they provide excellent snowproof capabilities and an adjustable fit, users should note that the polyester construction requires specific care to maintain the water-repellent finish over time.

FAQs
Are these trousers waterproof?
They are snowproof and water-resistant, featuring a DWR finish that causes water to bead off the surface, making them suitable for snowy conditions.
Can I remove the braces?
Yes, the braces are detachable, allowing you to wear the trousers with or without them depending on your preference.
What is the lowest temperature they can handle?
The Moon II trousers are thermal tested to remain effective down to -20°C.
Do these trousers have pockets?
Yes, they feature two side zip pockets for secure storage of small items.
How do I choose the right size?
The trousers are sized by UK dress size. Refer to the standard Mountain Warehouse size guide to ensure the 12 UK fit matches your measurements.
Are they machine washable?
Yes, but it is highly recommended to use a cleaner specifically formulated for waterproof or technical outdoor gear to preserve the fabric's integrity.
Troubleshooting
Snow getting into boots
Ensure the internal snow gaiters are pulled down securely over the top of your ski boot cuffs before closing the side ankle zips.
Fabric no longer repels water
The DWR finish may have worn off. Wash the trousers and apply a DWR re-proofer spray, then tumble dry on a low heat setting if the care label permits.
Braces slipping off shoulders
Adjust the tensioners on the detachable braces to ensure a snug fit that accounts for the layering worn underneath.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the best performance, adjust the detachable braces before heading to the slopes so they sit comfortably on your shoulders without restricting movement. The elasticated waistband provides a natural fit, but ensure the stud and zip fly are fully secured to prevent moisture ingress at the closure point. For care, it is essential to wash these trousers with specialized technical gear cleaners rather than standard household detergents, which can strip the DWR coating. After washing, allow them to air dry completely. If water stops beading on the surface of the fabric after several seasons, consider using a spray-on DWR replenishment treatment to restore the water-resistant properties.
