FAQs
Are these pants suitable for winter climbing?
They are ideal for cool to temperate conditions. For extreme sub-zero temperatures, they can be layered over thermal leggings.
Can I use these for hiking?
Yes, the articulated design and moisture-wicking properties make them excellent for strenuous hiking.
How do I clean the bonded zips?
Keep the zips free of grit by rinsing with clean water. If the zipper teeth become stiff, use a specialized zipper lubricant.
What does the ripstop fabric do?
The ripstop weave incorporates reinforcement threads at regular intervals, preventing small tears from spreading through the fabric.
Can the ankle cordlocks be removed?
The cordlocks are integrated into the hem construction and are not designed to be removed.
Is the fabric fully waterproof?
No, the pants feature a DWR finish that repels light moisture, but they are not fully waterproof or seam-sealed.
Troubleshooting
Water is soaking into the fabric instead of beading off
The DWR finish has likely worn off; wash the garment and apply a fresh DWR re-proofer spray.
Cordlock mechanism feels stuck or difficult to tighten
Clear any trapped grit or debris from the spring-loaded mechanism using a soft brush.
Waist buckle slipping during activity
Ensure the webbing is threaded correctly through the buckle teeth; if it continues to slip, check for debris trapped in the teeth.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, utilize the integrated buckle waistband to cinch the pants to your specific waist measurement. For compatibility, the relaxed fit is designed to be worn over base layers in colder conditions if necessary.
Regarding care, it is essential to wash these pants in cool water with a mild detergent. To maintain the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) performance, avoid fabric softeners, as they can clog the fabric's pores. If the water-repellent performance begins to fade, apply a spray-on DWR treatment after washing to restore the water-shedding capabilities. Always check the internal care label for specific temperature settings when machine drying.
