FAQs
Are these trousers insulated for very cold weather?
These trousers feature a double layer fabric and a soft-touch lining for comfort and some warmth. For extreme cold, layering additional thermal base layers underneath is recommended.
How do I ensure the correct size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Mountain Warehouse and measure your child's waist and inseam. This model is listed as UK size 5-6.
Can the braces be fully removed if not needed?
Yes, the braces are detachable, offering flexibility in how the trousers are worn.
What is the main advantage of the reinforced knee and scuff guards?
These reinforcements significantly increase the durability of the trousers in high-wear areas, making them more resistant to damage from skiing, falling, and general play.
How effective are the snow gaiters?
The snow gaiters are designed to fit snugly around ski boots, creating a seal that prevents snow from entering the top of the boots and causing discomfort or wetness.
What type of detergent should I use for washing?
Use a mild liquid detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, powders, or bleach, as they can impair the fabric's waterproof and breathable properties.
Can these trousers be worn for activities other than skiing?
Yes, these trousers are suitable for any cold-weather outdoor activity, including sledding, snowball fights, walking in snow, and general winter play, due to their waterproof and durable nature.
Troubleshooting
Water not beading on the fabric surface.
The water-repellent finish may have worn off. Consider using a wash-in or spray-on re-proofer suitable for waterproof garments, following the product instructions carefully.
Snow or water seeping through seams.
Ensure all seams are intact. If damage is visible, professional repair may be needed. For minor wear, seam sealant could be an option.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to move.
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and water. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or a graphite pencil to the teeth to help them glide smoothly.
Trousers feel too tight or restrictive.
Adjust the detachable braces for a better fit. Ensure that only appropriate layers are worn underneath, avoiding excessively bulky clothing that might restrict movement.

Care Instructions: To maintain the performance of the waterproof fabric and overall integrity of the trousers:
- Washing: Machine wash at 30°C or 40°C with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can degrade the fabric's waterproof properties.
- Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or hang to dry away from direct heat sources. Do not iron.
