Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Dare 2b ski pants, follow these guidelines:
- Fitting: Adjust the shoulder braces and waist tabs while the child is wearing their base layers to ensure a comfortable, non-restrictive fit.
- Gaiter Positioning: Ensure the inner snow gaiters are pulled over the outer shell of the ski boots to form an effective seal.
- Washing: Use technical garment cleaners rather than standard laundry detergent. Standard soaps can clog the pores of the waterproof membrane.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If machine drying is necessary, use a cool, low-heat cycle. Never use fabric softener as it will damage the water-repellent finish.
- Re-proofing: Periodically apply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) spray if you notice water no longer 'beads up' on the surface of the fabric.
