Product Information
Full details
The Mountain Warehouse Moon II Ski Trousers are designed for adult women who require reliable warmth and protection during winter snow sports. Featuring advanced thermal insulation and a durable water-repellent (DWR) finish, these trousers excel at keeping you dry and comfortable in temperatures as low as -20°C; however, because they are heavily padded, they are best suited for cold-weather mountain activities rather than high-intensity aerobic exercise where breathability might be a limiting factor.

FAQs
Can these trousers be worn in -20°C?
Yes, they are specifically insulated with microfibre filling to provide warmth in temperatures as low as -20°C.
Are the braces removable?
Yes, the trousers feature detachable braces that can be removed depending on your preference.
Will these fit over my ski boots?
Yes, they are designed with side zip ankles and touch-fastening closures to expand easily over standard ski boots.
Are they waterproof?
They feature a water-resistant finish (DWR), which is highly effective for skiing, though not classified as fully submersible waterproof.
How should I clean them?
Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with technical detergent and air dry; do not use fabric softener.
Do they have pockets?
Yes, they include two zip-secured side pockets for storing small essentials.
Troubleshooting
Water begins to soak through the outer fabric
The DWR finish may have worn off. Re-apply a water-repellent spray designed for synthetic fabrics.
Zips feel stiff or stick
Clear any compacted snow or dirt from the zip teeth and lubricate them with a silicone-based zipper lubricant.
Trousers feel cold during use
Ensure you are wearing a high-quality moisture-wicking base layer underneath, as the trousers require a warm layer to trap heat effectively.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent thermal retention in sub-zero conditions
- Easy to put on over ski boots due to side zip ankles

Cons
- Heavily padded design can feel bulky
- May be too warm for mild spring skiing

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your trousers, start by adjusting the detachable braces to your shoulder height. Before heading out, ensure the snow gaiters are tucked inside your ski boots to create a proper seal. When caring for your garment, machine wash on a gentle cycle using a mild technical detergent to preserve the DWR coating. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip away the water-resistant properties. Air dry your trousers away from direct heat sources like radiators, as high temperatures can damage the insulating synthetic fibres.
