FAQs
Are these pants machine washable?
Yes, they can be machine washed, but it is best to use a specialized cleaner for waterproof technical clothing.
Do these pants run true to size?
The Effused III is designed with a standard athletic cut; if you plan to wear heavy mid-layers underneath, consider that when choosing your size.
Are these pants windproof?
Yes, they are constructed with a windproof barrier to protect you from cold mountain air.
Can I wear these for activities other than skiing?
While designed for skiing, their waterproof and warm nature makes them suitable for other cold-weather outdoor activities like sledding or winter hiking.
How should I store them during the off-season?
Store them clean and dry in a cool, dark place, ideally hanging up to maintain the shape of the padding.
Troubleshooting
Water beading is no longer effective on the surface
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) coating has likely worn off. Apply a technical spray-on DWR treatment to the exterior fabric after washing.
Feeling damp inside the pants
Ensure you are using moisture-wicking base layers instead of cotton, which traps sweat and ruins the breathability benefit of the ARED membrane.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maintain the performance of the ARED 35/35 fabric, wash the pants on a cool cycle using a technical cleaner designed for waterproof gear, avoiding heavy detergents or fabric softeners. Air-dry away from direct heat sources to prevent material degradation. These pants are compatible with most standard ski boots, and the cuffs are designed to fit snugly over boot gaiters to seal out snow. It is recommended to check the fit over your chosen thermal base layer before hitting the slopes to ensure full range of motion.
