FAQs

Are these pants waterproof enough for heavy rain?

These pants feature 10k waterproofing, which is designed for typical snow conditions. They are not rated for heavy rain or prolonged exposure to extreme, wet conditions.

Can I wear these for spring skiing?

Yes, the internal thigh vents allow you to dump heat effectively, making them versatile for warmer spring days.

Do I need to wear long underwear underneath?

While the 60g insulation provides warmth, it is generally recommended to wear a moisture-wicking base layer to manage sweat and add comfort.

How should I wash them?

Use a technical wash for waterproof garments, machine wash on cold/gentle, and avoid fabric softeners.

What is the fit like?

They feature a standard, active cut that is intended for mobility on the slopes without excessive bagginess.

Troubleshooting

Water soaking through the fabric surface

The DWR coating may be wearing off. Re-apply a spray-on waterproof treatment after cleaning the pants.

Zipper sticking or difficult to move

Check for debris or fabric caught in the track. Clean the track with a soft brush and apply a dedicated zipper lubricant if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Oakley Cedar RC pants last multiple seasons, follow these maintenance guidelines:

  1. Fit Adjustment: Use the integrated side waistband tabs to tighten the fit before heading out. This ensures the pants stay secure even during aggressive movement.
  2. Boot Integration: Ensure the elastic boot gaiters are pulled down over your ski or snowboard boots before zipping the ankle gussets to create a complete snow seal.
  3. Cleaning: Wash in cold water on a delicate cycle using a technical detergent designed for waterproof gear. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating.
  4. Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If you must use a dryer, use the lowest heat setting to prevent damage to the technical membranes.
