Product Information
Full details
The Helly Hansen Blizzard Ski Trousers in Purple are designed for adult women seeking durable, waterproof, and warm ski pants for the season. Their key benefit is providing reliable protection from the elements with HELLY TECH® Protection, while a PFC-free water repellent and bluesign® certified manufacturing offer an environmentally conscious choice. A potential consideration is their regular fit, which may not suit everyone's preference for a slimmer or looser silhouette.

Can I adjust the waist fit?

How should I wash these trousers?

Troubleshooting
Trousers feel damp inside
Ensure the garment was washed according to instructions and fully dried. Check that zippers are fully closed to prevent water ingress. If the issue persists, the waterproof membrane may be compromised, though this is uncommon with proper care.
Zippers are stiff or difficult to move
Gently clean the zipper teeth with a damp cloth and allow to dry. Apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or beeswax to the teeth.
Water is not repelling effectively
The DWR (durable water repellent) finish may have worn off. Reapply a PFC-free DWR treatment after washing and drying the trousers, following the product's instructions.
Trousers feel too tight or restrictive
Ensure you are wearing appropriate base layers. The regular fit is designed for standard movement; consider layering strategy or trying a different size if the fit is fundamentally incorrect.
