Full details
The Dare 2B Achieve II Ski Trousers are designed for adult male skiers and snowboarders who require high-performance technical gear for the slopes. These trousers offer a significant advantage in weather protection and mobility thanks to their Ared 20,000mm waterproof rating, breathable fabric, and four-way stretch construction. While these trousers provide excellent durability and a customizable fit, users should note that they are specifically engineered for snow sports and may feel overly technical for casual, everyday winter wear.

Troubleshooting
Water is soaking into the fabric surface
The DWR finish may be worn off; clean the garment and re-apply a DWR spray treatment.
Difficulty with zipper movement
Ensure no fabric or debris is caught in the track; a small amount of zipper lubricant can be used if it remains stiff.
Bib or braces sliding off
Check the tension of the adjustable straps and ensure the attachment clips are fully engaged in the mounting loops.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your trousers, adjust the waist tabs and braces before hitting the slopes to ensure a snug fit that does not restrict movement. The detachable bib and braces should be clipped in securely. When it comes to care, wash the trousers in cool water using a technical garment cleaner designed for waterproof fabrics. Avoid using traditional laundry detergents or fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR finish and compromise the breathability. Periodically re-apply a DWR spray treatment if you notice water stopping 'beading up' on the surface of the fabric. Always allow the trousers to air dry away from direct heat sources to preserve the integrity of the taped seams.
