Product Information
Full details
This Mountain Warehouse Womens Ski Jacket & Pants Set in Blue (Size 16) is designed for adult women seeking snowproof and insulated skiwear. Its key benefit is protection against snow and cold temperatures, ensuring comfort on the slopes. A potential caveat is that while snowproof, it is water-resistant rather than fully waterproof, so extreme wet conditions may require additional care. This set offers essential features for a day of skiing or snowboarding, including padded insulation, a snowskirt, and adjustable elements for a customized fit.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this set fully waterproof?
The set is described as 'snowproof' and 'water-resistant' due to its Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment. While effective against snow and light moisture, it may not be suitable for prolonged exposure to heavy rain.
What type of insulation does it use?
It uses padded microfibre filling, which is a synthetic alternative to down, providing excellent heat retention and warmth.
How do I adjust the fit?
The fit can be adjusted using the adjustable hood, detachable and adjustable braces on the pants, and the snow gaiters which help secure the fit around boots.
What is the warranty period?
The set comes with a 2-year warranty.
Can I detach the braces on the pants?
Yes, the braces are detachable, allowing you to customize your fit and style.
How should I clean the ski set?
It's recommended to follow the care label instructions, typically involving a cool or warm wash with a technical cleaner and avoiding fabric softeners. Reapply DWR treatment as needed.
Troubleshooting
Reduced water repellency after washing
Ensure no fabric softener was used. Re-apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment to the garment following product instructions.
Snow entering at the waistline
Ensure the internal snowskirt is properly fastened and zipped. Check that the jacket and pants are securely connected if they have a zip-together feature (not specified, but common).
Zipper is stiff or stuck
Gently try to move the zipper. Clean any debris from the teeth. Apply a wax or silicone-based lubricant to the zipper track.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: This set requires no complex setup. Ensure all zippers are functioning correctly and adjust the hood and braces for a comfortable fit before heading out. The detachable braces can be removed or adjusted as needed.
Compatibility: Designed as a ski wear set, it is compatible with standard ski and snowboard boots. The jacket and pants are intended to be worn together for maximum protection.
Care: To maintain the snowproof and water-resistant properties, it is recommended to wash the garment according to the care label instructions, typically on a cool or warm cycle with a specific technical wash. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the DWR treatment. Re-apply a DWR finish periodically to ensure continued water repellency. Check zippers and seams regularly for wear and tear.
