FAQs
Are these pants suitable for very cold temperatures?
Yes, the superior insulation is designed to keep children warm in cold winter conditions, making them ideal for skiing and other snow sports.
How do I adjust the fit of the waistband?
The pants feature adjustable side Velcro tabs on the waistband. Simply pull the tabs to tighten or loosen the fit as needed for a secure feel.
What is the best way to clean these ski pants?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and tumble dry on low heat or air dry.
Can these pants be worn for activities other than skiing?
While designed for skiing, they are suitable for any winter outdoor activity where warmth and water resistance are needed, such as snowboarding, sledding, or playing in the snow. They may be too warm for strenuous non-snow activities.
What material are the pants made from?
The shell is made from a blend of nylon and elastane, the lining is nylon, and the insulation is polyester.
How do the snow gaiters work?
The integrated snow gaiters are elasticated cuffs located inside the pant leg at the hem. They are designed to pull down over ski boots to create a seal that prevents snow from entering the boots.
What does 'four-way stretch' mean for these pants?
Four-way stretch means the fabric can stretch in both width and length directions, providing maximum flexibility and comfort for active movement.
Troubleshooting
Pants feel too warm for non-skiing activities.
Consider wearing lighter base layers or ensure good ventilation by unzipping leg hems if possible. For less demanding activities, these pants may be best reserved for actual snow or ski conditions.
Snow seeps into boots.
Ensure the internal snow gaiters are pulled down and properly sealed around the ski boots. Check that the external cuff zippers are fully closed.
Water resistance seems reduced.
The DWR coating may need reapplication. Follow the instructions for a DWR spray or wash-in treatment designed for waterproof/breathable fabrics.
Zipper on pockets or hem is stiff.
Gently try to work the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the teeth.

Care:
- Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the water-resistant finish.
- Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Do not use high heat, as it can damage the fabric and insulation.
- Water Repellency: To maintain water resistance, periodically reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment following product instructions, typically after several washes or if water no longer beads on the surface.
