FAQs

Are these pants insulated?

No, the Picture Object Ski Pants are a shell layer and do not come with built-in insulation. They are designed to be worn with base or mid-layers to adjust warmth according to conditions.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the brand's sizing chart for accurate measurements. Consider your waist, hip, and inseam measurements. Since these are a shell, ensure there's enough room for layering.

What does '20K/20K' waterproof breathability mean?

It signifies that the fabric can withstand 20,000 millimeters of water pressure before leaking (waterproofness) and allows 20,000 grams of water vapor to pass through per square meter in 24 hours (breathability).

Can I use these for activities other than skiing or snowboarding?

Yes, their waterproof and breathable nature makes them suitable for other outdoor activities in wet or snowy conditions, such as hiking or snowshoeing, provided the fit is appropriate.

How do I maintain the PFC-free DWR treatment?

Wash the pants using a technical cleaner, and then reapply a PFC-free DWR treatment after washing and drying. This ensures continued water repellency.

What is bio-sourced polyester?

It is polyester made from plant-based sources, in this case, repurposed sugarcane waste, offering a more sustainable alternative to petroleum-based polyester.

Troubleshooting

Pants feel wet inside, but it's not raining.

This could be due to a lack of breathability. Ensure the ventilation zips are open during high activity. Also, check that your inner layers are not trapping too much moisture. The waterproof membrane might also need a refresh of its DWR treatment.

Water is soaking through the fabric.

The Durable Water Repellent (DWR) treatment may have worn off. Clean the pants thoroughly and reapply a PFC-free DWR spray or wash-in treatment according to the product's instructions.

Zippers are stiff or difficult to move.

Gently clean the zippers with a soft brush and a little water. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant or wax to the zipper teeth. Avoid using petroleum-based lubricants.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent waterproof and breathability ratings
  • Environmentally conscious material sourcing
  • Adjustable ventilation for comfort
  • Durable construction for freeride conditions
  • Versatile shell design for various temperatures

Cons

  • Requires layering for warmth as it is a shell pant
  • Straight fit may not be preferred by all skiers
  • PFC-free treatment might require reapplication over time

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are a standalone outerwear garment and require no specific setup beyond proper fitting. Ensure the waist adjustment is comfortable and the pant legs fit correctly over your ski or snowboard boots.

Compatibility: The straight fit is designed to be compatible with most ski and snowboard boots. They function as an outer shell, compatible with various base and mid-layers depending on temperature and activity level.

Care:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold with a technical wash or mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners.
  2. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Do not use high heat, as it can damage the waterproof membrane.
  3. Re-waterproofing: Periodically reapply a PFC-free DWR treatment to maintain water repellency, following the product's instructions.
