FAQs
Are these trousers insulated?
The trousers focus on high-performance shell protection using Ared technology; they provide wind and water resistance but you should layer appropriately for temperature.
Can I remove the bib completely?
Yes, the bib and braces are designed to be detachable for a customizable fit.
How do I wash them correctly?
Use a specialized technical detergent for waterproof fabrics and air dry. Avoid tumble drying or using fabric softeners.
What does 20,000mm waterproof mean?
This rating indicates the fabric can withstand a column of water 20,000mm high before water begins to penetrate, signifying high-level protection.
Will these fit over bulky ski boots?
Yes, the hem design is compatible with standard ski boots, and the integrated gaiters help seal the gap.
Troubleshooting
Water is soaking through the fabric surface
The DWR finish has likely worn off. Wash the trousers and apply a DWR re-waterproofing spray to restore surface beading.
Braces slipping during movement
Ensure the tensioners are fully locked and the bib is properly aligned with your torso to prevent slippage.
Snow entering boots
Verify that the integrated gaiters are pulled down fully over the top of the ski boots and secured with the hook or elastic band.
Pros and Cons

Cons
- Bib and braces may be too bulky for some users

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To configure the trousers, adjust the waistband using the integrated elasticated straps to achieve a secure fit before attaching the braces to your desired length. The bib is detachable via simple connection points, allowing you to switch between a full-bib setup for deep powder days or a traditional trouser fit for spring skiing.
For care, it is essential to follow the label instructions. Use a technical gear cleaner rather than standard detergent, as the latter can strip the DWR finish. After washing, consider using a re-waterproofing spray if water stops beading on the surface. Always hang the trousers to dry away from direct heat sources to preserve the integrity of the taped seams and synthetic fibers.
