FAQs
What is the waterproof rating (WP) and breathability rating (MVP)?
The salopettes have a waterproof rating of 10,000mm (WP) and a breathability rating of 5,000g/m²/24h (MVP), providing good protection against rain and snow while allowing internal moisture to escape.
Are these salopettes suitable for very cold weather?
They feature 60g synthetic insulation, which is suitable for typical ski conditions. For extremely cold temperatures, layering with thermal base and mid-layers is recommended.
How do I clean my CMP Ski Salopettes?
Machine wash at 30°C using a liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Do not iron or dry clean.
What does 'PFC Free' mean for the waterproofing?
'PFC Free' means that the waterproofing treatment used does not contain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, which are chemicals that can be harmful to the environment.
Can the straps be removed?
Yes, the straps are adjustable and detachable, allowing you to customize the fit or remove them if preferred.
What material are the salopettes made from?
The primary material is Polyester, designed to be extremely stretchable for comfort and freedom of movement.
Where is the reflective CMP logo located?
The reflective CMP logo is located at knee height.
Troubleshooting
Water seeping through seams
Ensure all seams are fully taped and intact. If taping appears damaged, consider professional repair. Re-apply a PFC-free waterproofing spray to the outer fabric.
Reduced breathability leading to internal dampness
Clean the garment according to care instructions to remove dirt and oils that can clog the membrane pores. Ensure you are not wearing excessive non-breathable layers underneath.
Straps not holding position
Check the adjusters for dirt or damage. Ensure the straps are properly threaded through the buckles. If the elastic has lost its tension, consider professional repair or replacement.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to use
Clean the zipper teeth gently with a soft brush. Apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax (like beeswax) to the zipper teeth to improve glide.
