FAQs
Are these trousers insulated?
The trousers are constructed with high-performance Ared fabric, which provides a barrier against the elements; they are best paired with a base layer to manage warmth in varying temperatures.
Can I remove the bib completely?
Yes, the bib and braces are detachable, allowing you to use the trousers as standard pants.
How do I clean the reinforced hems?
Spot clean the reinforced hems with a damp cloth and mild soap; avoid harsh scrubbing that could damage the fabric weave.
Are they true to size?
The trousers feature an adjustable waist, which provides a flexible fit within the standard sizing range for adult males.
What does 20,000mm waterproof mean?
This is a technical rating indicating that the fabric can withstand a 20,000mm column of water before moisture begins to penetrate, offering excellent protection in heavy snow or wet conditions.
Troubleshooting
Water soaking into the outer fabric
The DWR finish may be wearing off. Re-apply a spray-on or wash-in DWR treatment and tumble dry on low to reactivate the water-repellent properties.
Gaiters slipping up during skiing
Ensure the elasticated hem is fully pulled over the top of your ski boot, and verify that the boot buckle is not pushing the gaiter fabric upward.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, adjust the waist tabs first before attaching the braces. If you choose to use the bib, ensure the attachments are securely clicked into place to prevent sagging during physical activity. For long-term care, wash the trousers on a gentle cycle using a technical detergent designed for synthetic fabrics. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can strip the DWR coating. After washing, low-heat tumble drying or air drying is recommended to maintain the integrity of the taped seams.
