FAQs
What is DRYVENT™ technology?
DRYVENT™ is The North Face's proprietary technology that uses a durable, waterproof, and breathable coating or membrane to keep you dry and protected from the elements while allowing perspiration to escape.
How does the tailored fit work?
The pants are designed with SKIMS' signature approach to fit, featuring a cinched waist and a cut intended to flatter the body's natural curves. This differs from a standard, looser fit.
Are these pants suitable for extreme cold?
While the pants offer waterproof and breathable protection, they are designed as an outer shell. For extreme cold, layering with thermal base layers and insulating mid-layers is recommended.
Can I wear these for activities other than skiing?
Yes, the articulated knees and waterproof/breathable nature make them suitable for various outdoor activities like hiking, trekking, and general cold-weather exploration.
How do I care for the seam tape?
Follow the general care instructions. Avoid high heat and harsh chemicals, which can degrade the seam tape over time. Ensure the garment is fully dry before storing.
What is the inseam length?
The product description mentions a 'shorter inseam' as part of the design for a tailored fit. Specific measurements should be checked against the detailed size chart for the garment.
What materials are these pants made from?
The body of the pants is made from 100% nylon, with a pocket lining made of 100% polyester.
Troubleshooting
Water not beading off the surface
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have worn off. Consider applying a DWR treatment to restore water repellency. Ensure the garment is clean before applying.
Reduced breathability
Ensure the garment is clean and free of dirt and oils, which can clog the membrane. Follow care instructions precisely. Check for any blockages in vents if applicable.
Fit is too tight or too loose
Consult the specific sizing chart provided by The North Face x SKIMS for accurate measurements. Consider the intended use (e.g., layering) when choosing a size. Due to the tailored fit, exchanges may be necessary.
