FAQs
What does the 'PVRE Green' series mean?
The PVRE Green series indicates that the garment is made using sustainable practices, specifically from recycled materials, contributing to environmental responsibility.
How do I clean my Holymoly Salopette?
Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Do not bleach, tumble dry, or iron. Hang to dry.
What is the water resistance and breathability rating?
The salopette has a water resistance rating of 10,000 mm and a breathability rating of 10,000 g, providing good protection from the elements while allowing sweat to escape.
Is this salopette suitable for very cold conditions?
While it offers good protection and warmth when paired with appropriate base layers, it does not have taped seams, which are typically found on garments designed for extreme weather. It is well-suited for typical ski conditions.
How does the slim fit affect movement?
Despite the slim fit, the salopette features ergonomic pre-shaping and stretch fabric, designed to allow for a full range of motion and comfort during skiing.
Can I adjust the waist size?
No, the salopette features a fixed waistband and regular waist, meaning the size is not adjustable. It is important to choose the correct size for a comfortable fit.
What material is the salopette made from?
The main material is a blend of 94% polyester and 6% elastane.
Troubleshooting
Salopettes feel restrictive.
Ensure you are wearing the correct size. The slim fit is designed to be snug but should allow for movement. Check that the stretch fabric is not being hindered by other layers.
Snow or water seeping in.
Verify that all zippers, including ankle closures and pocket zippers, are fully zipped. Check the integrity of the inner ankle cuffs and ensure the silicone grippers are clean and making contact with your boots.
Difficulty zipping the front zipper.
Ensure there is no fabric caught in the zipper. Gently pull the fabric away from the zipper teeth and try again. If the zipper is stiff, a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) applied to the teeth can help.
Salopettes feel clammy inside.
This can indicate a breathability issue. Ensure you are wearing moisture-wicking base layers underneath. Make sure the salopettes are clean, as dirt and residue can clog the breathable membrane.
