FAQs

Are these trousers suitable for extreme cold?

These trousers are designed for performance skiing and offer good protection and breathability. For extremely cold conditions, layering with thermal base layers is recommended.

What does 'Ilus D-Lab Softshell' mean?

Ilus D-Lab Softshell is a proprietary technology that provides a balance of warmth, water resistance, and breathability, ideal for active outdoor pursuits.

How do I ensure the best fit?

Refer to the size guide for accurate measurements. The slim bootcut fit is designed to be snug but may benefit from using the zip gussets for fine-tuning around ski boots.

Can these trousers be worn for hiking?

While they offer excellent mobility and weather protection, their primary design is for skiing. For hiking, consider trousers specifically designed for that activity, though they can be used for winter hikes in appropriate conditions.

What is the benefit of using recycled materials?

Using recycled polyester reduces the reliance on virgin resources, lowers energy consumption during production, and minimizes waste, contributing to a more sustainable product.

How should I store these trousers when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place. Ensure they are clean and completely dry before long-term storage to prevent mildew or damage to the fabric's technical properties.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced.

The water-repellent finish may diminish over time. Consider using a specific reproofing spray designed for technical outdoor clothing after cleaning, following the product's instructions.

Trousers feel restrictive.

Ensure the size is correct and that the zip gussets are fully open if needed. While designed with stretch, the slim fit might require adjustment.

Snow enters ski boots.

Confirm that the integrated snow gaiters are properly positioned and sealed around your ski boots. Ensure they are not creased or bunched up.
