FAQs
What is the primary function of the Fusalp membrane?
The Fusalp membrane is a high-performance technical component designed to provide waterproofing and windproofing while allowing moisture vapor to escape, ensuring you stay dry and comfortable.
How does Dupont Sorona® fiber contribute to the suit's performance?
Dupont Sorona® is a bio-based, eco-friendly fiber used for insulation. It provides exceptional warmth, softness, and retains its loft even when damp, enhancing the suit's thermal performance.
Can this ski suit be worn in very cold temperatures?
Yes, the combination of the Fusalp membrane, fleece backing, and Dupont Sorona® insulation provides significant warmth. For extremely cold conditions, layering with a suitable thermal base layer is recommended.
Are the padded knee panels adjustable?
The padded knee panels are integrated into the suit's design for comfort and protection. They are not typically adjustable but are positioned to offer optimal coverage and freedom of movement.
How should I clean the suit to preserve its technical properties?
Machine wash cold (30°C) on a gentle cycle with technical garment detergent. Avoid fabric softener. Rinse twice and tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Reapply DWR treatment periodically.
Is this suit suitable for beginners or experienced skiers?
The suit is designed for high performance and features that benefit all levels of skiers, but its technical capabilities and stylish design are particularly appreciated by intermediate to advanced skiers who prioritize both function and aesthetics.
What does 'Fusalp aesthetic codes' refer to?
This refers to Fusalp's signature design elements, such as the wide high collar, quilted detailing, and graphic stripes, which give the Clarisse suit its distinctive and elegant look.
Troubleshooting
Suit feels less waterproof than before.
The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment may have worn off. Reapply a PFC-free DWR spray after cleaning, following the product's instructions.
Suit is not as warm as expected.
Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers. Check for any damage to the insulation or membrane. The suit is designed for significant warmth but may require layering in extreme conditions.
Fabric feels stiff or less flexible.
This can sometimes occur after washing. Ensure you have rinsed thoroughly and consider a low-heat tumble dry, which can help restore suppleness.
Zipper is difficult to move.
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper teeth. Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and apply a silicone-based lubricant or wax to help it glide smoothly.
