FAQs
Is this suit completely waterproof?
It is water-resistant, meaning it provides significant protection against light snow and moisture, but it is not intended for heavy, prolonged rain or immersion in water.
Can I remove the hood?
Yes, the hood is detachable, giving you the flexibility to wear the suit with or without it depending on the weather conditions.
How do I ensure I get the right fit?
Consult the provided UK dress sizing (e.g., size 18) and consider the clothing you intend to wear underneath, such as thermals or mid-layers.
Is the faux fur trim real?
No, the trim is synthetic faux fur, aligning with animal-friendly design standards.
Can I use this for activities other than skiing?
Yes, it is suitable for various winter adventures like snowshoeing, sledding, or general cold-weather outdoor activities.
Troubleshooting
Water resistance seems less effective over time
The water-resistant coating may need refreshing with a technical wash-in re-proofer after multiple seasons of use.
Zipper feels stiff or catches
Gently clean any debris or ice from the zipper track and apply a small amount of silicone lubricant if necessary.
Faux fur looks matted after storage
Gently shake the hood and use a soft-bristle brush to fluff the faux fur trim back into place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To maximize the life of your ski suit, ensure you choose the correct size for proper layering underneath; the suit should fit comfortably without being overly tight or restrictive. When caring for the garment, always detach the faux fur trim before laundering to prevent damage to the fibers. We recommend washing in cold water on a delicate cycle using a detergent designed for technical gear. Air drying is preferred over tumble drying to preserve the water-resistant coating and the integrity of the insulation. Always check the care label inside the garment for specific temperature requirements before cleaning.
