FAQs
What is the waterproofing and breathability rating?
The pants feature a 10K/10K rating, meaning they offer 10,000mm of waterproofing and 10,000g/m²/24h of breathability.
Are these pants suitable for very cold weather?
The pants provide a waterproof and breathable shell. For extremely cold conditions, layering with thermal base layers is recommended for added warmth.
How do I clean the DWR coating?
The DWR coating is maintained by washing the garment and then reapplying a specific PFC-free DWR treatment. Follow the instructions on the DWR product packaging.
Can I use these pants for activities other than skiing or snowboarding?
While designed for snow sports, their waterproof and breathable features make them suitable for other outdoor winter activities where protection from moisture is needed.
What does 'PFC-free' mean?
PFC-free refers to the absence of per- and polyfluorinated chemicals in the durable water-repellent coating, making it a more environmentally responsible choice.
How does the jacket-pants connector system work?
This system typically involves a series of snaps or a zipper on the inner waistband of the pants that connects to a corresponding interface on a compatible jacket, creating a barrier against snow ingress.
Troubleshooting
Pants feel wet inside
Ensure the DWR coating is active by reapplying a PFC-free treatment. Check that all seams are intact and that the jacket-pants connector is properly sealed.
Waist feels too loose or too tight
Adjust the waist using the snap closure for a secure and comfortable fit. Ensure the snap is fully engaged.
Snow entering the pants
Ensure the jacket-pants connector system is used and properly linked with your jacket. Check that the leg gaiters (if applicable) are functioning correctly.
