FAQs
Are these pants waterproof or water-resistant?
These pants are snowproof and treated with a Durable Water Repellent (DWR), making them water-resistant. They are suitable for general snow conditions but may not be fully waterproof for prolonged immersion in water.
How do I choose the right size?
The description notes they have a wide and comfortable fit. It's recommended to check a size chart if available, or consider your usual UK dress size. If you prefer a slimmer fit, an alternative model is suggested.
Can I wear these without braces?
Yes, the braces are detachable. You can remove them if you prefer to wear the pants without them, relying on the elasticated waist for fit.
What is the insulation like?
The pants are insulated for extra warmth, making them suitable for cold ski conditions. The exact fill weight is not specified, but it's designed for comfort on the slopes.
Are the pockets secure?
Yes, the pants feature two front zipped security pockets, providing a safe place to store small items.
How should I wash these ski pants?
Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle using a small amount of non-biological liquid detergent. Avoid fabric softener. Tumble dry on low heat or hang to dry.
What is the benefit of snow gaiters?
Snow gaiters are elasticated cuffs located inside the pant leg openings. They help prevent snow from getting into your ski boots and trouser legs if you fall or during deep snow conditions.
Troubleshooting
Pants feel too loose
Adjust the detachable braces for a tighter fit. The elasticated waist also provides some flexibility.
Snow entering boots
Ensure the integrated snow gaiters are pulled down fully and sealed around your ski boots. Check that the gaiters are not damaged.
Water seeping through fabric
The DWR treatment may have worn off. Reapply a suitable waterproofing treatment to the outer fabric. Ensure all seams are intact.
Zippers are stiff
Gently clean the zippers with a damp cloth and then dry. Apply a small amount of wax or graphite (from a pencil lead) to lubricate the zipper teeth.
