FAQs

Is the hood removable?

Yes, the hood is detachable, and the faux fur trim can also be removed independently from the hood.

Can I wear this in extreme cold?

The suit is insulated, but for extreme temperatures, we recommend wearing high-quality thermal base layers underneath.

How do I clean the faux fur trim?

Remove the trim before washing the suit. It is best to spot clean it or hand wash it gently to maintain the quality of the faux fur fibers.

Is the suit fully waterproof?

The suit is water-resistant, meaning it is designed to repel water and handle light snow, but it is not intended for heavy, sustained downpours.

Does the suit provide enough breathability?

Yes, the fabric is constructed to be breathable, which helps move moisture away from the body during physical activities like skiing.

What should I do if the zipper gets stuck?

Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper track. If it remains stiff, you can run a graphite pencil lead along the teeth to act as a lubricant.

Troubleshooting

Water soaking into the outer layer

The water-repellent treatment may have worn off. Apply a specialized DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray to the exterior fabric.

Cold air entering through the cuffs

Ensure the adjustable cuff tabs are pulled tight and secured properly over your gloves or wrists.

Faux fur looks matted after storage

Gently shake the hood to fluff the fibers or use a wide-tooth comb to lightly detangle the faux fur trim.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your suit lasts for many seasons, adhere to these guidelines:

  1. Cleaning: Always check the care label before washing. Generally, remove the faux fur trim before laundering to prevent damage. Use a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, as these can compromise the water-resistant coating.
  2. Drying: Air drying is recommended. Avoid high heat from tumble dryers, which may affect the integrity of the insulation and the outer shell fabric.
  3. Storage: Store the suit in a cool, dry place. Ensure it is completely dry before packing it away for the off-season to prevent mildew.
  4. Compatibility: The suit is designed to be worn over thermal base layers. Depending on the current temperature, you may choose to add a thin fleece layer underneath for added warmth.
