FAQs

Are these pants suitable for very cold temperatures?

Yes, the Omni-Heat thermal reflective technology is designed to provide significant warmth, making them suitable for cold weather. For extreme cold, consider pairing with appropriate base layers.

Can I wear these for activities other than skiing?

While optimized for skiing and snowboarding, they offer excellent waterproof and windproof protection, making them suitable for winter hiking, snowshoeing, or any activity in cold, wet conditions.

How do I clean the pants without damaging the waterproof features?

Machine wash cold with like colors using a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, bleach, and high heat drying or ironing. Follow the specific care instructions provided.

What does 'critically seam sealed' mean?

It means that the seams most vulnerable to water penetration (like those on the seat and legs) have been sealed with tape to prevent leaks, ensuring a higher level of waterproofing.

How does the Omni-Heat technology work?

Omni-Heat uses small, metallic dots embedded in the fabric lining. These dots reflect your body heat back towards you, significantly increasing warmth without adding bulk or weight.

Is the fit adjustable?

Yes, the pants feature an exterior adjustable waist, allowing you to fine-tune the fit for comfort and to accommodate different layering options.

What is the purpose of the lower leg snap gusset?

The lower leg snap gusset allows for slight adjustments to the leg opening, accommodating different types of footwear and providing a better fit over ski or snowboard boots.

Troubleshooting

Pants feel wet on the inside.

This could be due to excessive perspiration or a breach in the waterproof membrane. Ensure you are not overheating; consider lighter base layers. If the fabric is no longer repelling water, it may be time to reapply a DWR treatment.

Water is leaking through seams.

Verify that all seams are critically seam sealed. If leakage persists, the seam tape may be damaged. Contact customer support for potential repair or replacement options.

Zipper is stiff or difficult to move.

Gently clean the zipper teeth with a soft brush and mild soap and water. Dry thoroughly and apply a small amount of wax or silicone lubricant to the zipper teeth.

Leg gaiter is not sealing properly.

Ensure the gaiter is pulled down fully and correctly positioned over your boot. Check for any debris or damage to the gaiter's elastic or closure system.

Care Instructions:

  2. Drying: Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Do NOT use bleach or iron.
  3. Re-proofing: Periodically, you may need to reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish to the exterior fabric to maintain optimal water resistance. Follow the product instructions for the DWR treatment.
