They feature a DWR finish, which makes them highly water-resistant and suitable for snow conditions, though they are not marketed as fully waterproof seam-sealed rain gear.
RECCO is a two-part rescue system consisting of reflectors integrated into the trousers and detectors used by search and rescue teams to find people buried in an avalanche.
These trousers are designed with a slim-fit cut. If you prefer to wear thick thermal leggings or base layers underneath, you may want to consider this when selecting your size.
Yes, their heat retention and water resistance make them excellent for winter hiking, sledding, or other outdoor cold-weather activities.
Store them in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. Ensure they are completely clean before packing them away.
The DWR finish has likely worn off; reapply a specialized DWR spray treatment after cleaning.
Ensure you are using appropriate moisture-wicking base layers; cotton base layers can trap sweat and make you feel colder.
Check that the internal elastic snow gaiters are properly pulled down over the top of your ski boot shell.
For optimal protection, ensure the trousers are worn with the snow gaiters tucked securely over your ski boots to prevent moisture intrusion. To maintain the DWR finish, machine wash the trousers on a gentle cycle with a technical detergent designed for outdoor gear; avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the water-repellent properties. Always hang-dry your trousers away from direct heat sources to preserve the integrity of the synthetic materials.
