FAQs
What is the primary purpose of this set?
This set is designed for winter sports like skiing and snowboarding, providing insulation, warmth, and protection against snow and wind.
What does DWR Finish mean?
DWR stands for Durable Water Repellent. It's a coating applied to fabrics to make them shed water and resist stains, helping you stay drier in light precipitation.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the provided UK sizing chart which lists waist measurements in inches for each UK dress size (e.g., Size 6 corresponds to 33 inches).
Can I use this set for activities other than skiing?
Yes, the set is suitable for any cold-weather outdoor activity where warmth and protection from the elements are needed, such as winter hiking or general casual wear.
Are the trousers waterproof?
The trousers have a DWR finish, which repels water. While suitable for snow and light moisture, they may not be fully waterproof for prolonged exposure to heavy rain or extreme wet conditions.
How do I maintain the water-repellent properties?
To maintain the DWR finish, follow the care instructions for washing and tumble drying. Periodically, you may consider applying a specialized DWR re-treatment product for fabrics.
What is included in the set?
The set includes one ski jacket and one pair of ski trousers.
Troubleshooting
Jacket or trousers feel too tight/loose
Adjust the grown-on hood, cuff fastenings, and trouser braces for a more personalized fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size based on the provided UK sizing chart.
Water seeping through fabric in heavy rain/wet snow
The DWR finish provides water repellency for light moisture. For very wet conditions, consider a DWR re-treatment or a waterproof outer layer. Check that all zips are fully closed.
Reduced warmth after several uses
Ensure the garment is clean, as dirt and oils can reduce the effectiveness of insulation. Follow the recommended washing and drying instructions. Consider wearing appropriate thermal base layers underneath.
Snow entering through trouser legs
Ensure the integrated snow gaiters are correctly positioned over your ski boots and fastened securely. If the gaiters seem loose, check for any damage or wear.
