FAQs
How does the "Grow with me" system work?
The "Grow with me" system typically involves an internal seam or extension that can be unstitched or adjusted to lengthen the pant legs, allowing the pants to fit for a longer period as the child grows.
Can I machine wash these ski pants?
Yes, you can machine wash them following the specific instructions: separately, inside out, with all fasteners closed, and avoiding fabric softeners. However, dry cleaning is recommended for best results and to maintain water repellency.
How do I reactivate the water repellency?
To reactivate water repellency, tumble dry the pants after washing, and then iron the outside of the product at a maximum of 110°C without steam, protecting it with a cloth.
What material are the pants made of?
The main body is made of 72% Polyester and 28% Polyurethane. The lining is 100% Polyester, and pocket lining is 100% Polyamide.
Are the suspenders removable?
Yes, the suspenders are both removable and adjustable, allowing for customization of the fit and for easier cleaning.
What is the purpose of the lower leg reinforcement?
The reinforcement on the lower legs protects the fabric from abrasion and damage caused by ski edges and ski boots during use.
What is the "FUSALP-approved membrane"?
This refers to a proprietary membrane used by Fusalp that provides a balance of waterproofing, breathability, and windproofing, ensuring performance on the ski slopes.
Troubleshooting
Water is leaking through seams
Ensure seams are properly sealed. If the issue persists, consider professional seam sealing or re-application of a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment after cleaning.
Pants feel restrictive
Adjust the waistband and suspenders for a more comfortable fit. Ensure no bulky layers underneath are causing discomfort.
Snow gets into boots
Ensure the snow gaiters are properly positioned over the ski boots and the non-slip elastic band is functioning correctly. Check for any damage to the gaiters.
Water repellency is reduced after washing
Follow the specific care instructions, including tumble drying and ironing the outside of the garment with a cloth to reactivate the DWR treatment. Consider using a specialized spray for outdoor technical apparel.
