FAQs
What is the waterproof rating of these trousers?
The Dare 2B Achieve II Ski Trousers have a waterproof rating of 20000mm, providing excellent protection against heavy rain and snow.
Are these trousers suitable for extreme cold?
These trousers offer good protection against the elements. For very cold conditions, layering with thermal base layers is recommended for optimal warmth.
How do I clean and maintain the waterproof finish?
Machine wash at 30°C with a mild detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Tumble dry on low heat to help maintain the DWR finish. Reapply DWR treatment as needed.
What does 'four-way stretch' mean for these trousers?
Four-way stretch fabric means the material can stretch in both width and length directions, allowing for maximum freedom of movement during activities like skiing.
Do these trousers have insulation?
The product description does not mention insulation, suggesting these are shell trousers designed for layering, not insulated ski pants.
What is the purpose of the reinforced hem?
The reinforced hem adds durability to the lower part of the trousers, protecting them from abrasion caused by ski edges, boots, or other equipment.
Can I detach the bib and braces?
The description mentions detachable bib and braces, suggesting they can be removed if desired for different wearing preferences or activities.
Troubleshooting
Trousers feel wet inside.
Ensure all seams are taped and intact. Check that zippers are fully closed. If the issue persists, the fabric's breathability might be overwhelmed by extreme exertion, or the DWR finish may need reapplication.
Snow gets into boots.
Ensure the integral gaiters are pulled down correctly over your ski boots and secured. Check if the gaiters are damaged and need repair.
Waist feels too loose or tight.
Adjust the waistband using the integrated adjustment system for a secure and comfortable fit.
Reduced water repellency.
The DWR finish may need to be reactivated by tumble drying on low heat or reapplied according to DWR product instructions.
