FAQs
What does WP 10.000 MVP 10.000 mean?
WP 10.000 refers to a waterproof rating of 10,000 millimeters of water column, indicating good resistance to rain and snow. MVP 10.000 refers to a Moisture Vapor Transmission rate of 10,000g/m²/24h, indicating good breathability, meaning it allows moisture vapor from your body to escape.
Are these trousers suitable for very cold temperatures?
The trousers feature layered synthetic padding for warmth. They are designed for general skiing and snowboarding conditions. For extreme cold, consider layering appropriate thermal base layers underneath.
How do I care for the waterproof treatment?
Wash using a mild detergent on a delicate cycle at 30°C, and tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Reapply a waterproofing treatment periodically as needed.
Can I wear these for activities other than skiing or snowboarding?
Yes, the trousers offer good water and wind resistance, making them suitable for other winter outdoor activities like hiking or snowshoeing, provided the conditions match their performance capabilities.
What is a snow gaiter?
A snow gaiter is an elasticated cuff inside the bottom of the trouser leg, often with a non-slip silicone print. It is designed to fit snugly over ski boots to prevent snow from entering your boots and trousers.
What does PFC-free mean?
PFC-free means the water-repellent treatment used on the fabric does not contain per- or polyfluorinated chemicals, which are considered environmentally harmful. This is a more sustainable approach to waterproofing.
Troubleshooting
Trousers feel wet inside
Ensure the breathability rating (MVP) is sufficient for your activity level. Check that all zippers are closed and the snow gaiter is properly sealed. If water is seeping through seams, reapply a seam sealer or consider if the garment has reached the end of its waterproof lifespan.
Water is not beading on the surface
The PFC-free water-repellent treatment may need to be reactivated or reapplied. Follow instructions for washing and drying, and consider using a specialized waterproofing spray for technical fabrics.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to use
Clean the zipper teeth gently with a soft brush and a small amount of water. Ensure no debris is caught in the zipper. Lubricate with a silicone-based zipper lubricant if necessary.
Snow gaiter is not sealing properly
Ensure the snow gaiter is pulled down fully over your ski boots and the silicone print is making contact with the boot material. Check for any damage to the elastic or silicone grip.
