RECCO is an integrated electronic reflector that makes you searchable to professional rescuers equipped with RECCO detectors in the event of an avalanche.
Yes, but due to the slim fit, it is recommended to wear thin, moisture-wicking synthetic base layers rather than bulky fleece.
They feature a water-resistant DWR finish designed to shed snow and light rain, but they are not fully seam-sealed waterproof rain gear.
Wipe the scuff guards down with a damp cloth to remove dirt and ice; if heavily soiled, follow the manufacturer's care instructions for machine washing.
Yes, they are designed with Isotherm heat retention technology, though you should adjust your base layer thickness based on the specific temperature.
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish may have worn off. Wash the trousers and apply a DWR reactivation spray or wash-in treatment.
Ensure the gaiter is pulled up before putting your boots on, then pull the elasticated hem down over the boot once the boot is buckled.
To ensure the best performance, secure the trousers using the stud and zip fly closure for a snug fit. The belt loops allow for extra adjustment if needed. When pairing with gear, ensure the internal snow gaiters are pulled down over your ski boot shells before securing the boot buckles; this creates a physical seal against snow ingress. For maintenance, wash the trousers on a gentle cycle using a mild, technical cleaner. Avoid standard fabric softeners as they can degrade the DWR coating. Periodically check the garment for signs of wear on the scuff guards; if water begins to soak into the fabric rather than beading on the surface, consider reapplying a technical DWR spray to restore the water-resistant properties.
