FAQs

What does 15/15K rating mean?

It means the fabric is rated for 15,000mm of waterproofness and 15,000g of breathability, providing excellent protection for most ski conditions.

Are these pants insulated?

The pants focus on protective shell performance; it is recommended to wear thermal baselayers for added warmth.

Can I wear these for activities other than skiing?

Yes, their windproof and waterproof nature makes them suitable for other cold-weather outdoor activities like winter hiking or snowshoeing.

How do I ensure the right fit?

Check the UK size guide provided; the articulated design is intended to fit snugly but allow for layering underneath.

Is the cord-texture material durable?

The polyester construction is built for durability on the slopes, though it should be protected from sharp edges or abrasive surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Water soaking into the outer fabric

The DWR finish may be wearing off; wash the garment with a technical cleaner and apply a spray-on DWR treatment to restore waterproof properties.

Snow entering the bottom of the pant

Ensure the internal snow gaiters are pulled firmly over the boot shell and not tucked inside the boot itself.

Restricted movement

Check that the braces are not adjusted too tightly and ensure you are wearing appropriate lightweight baselayers that do not cause bunching.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High waterproof and breathability rating (15/15K)
  • Stylish and unique cord-textured aesthetic
  • Enhanced mobility through articulated knee construction
  • Practical snow protection features like integrated gaiters
  • Adjustable straps for a tailored fit

Cons

  • Textured material may be harder to clean than smooth synthetics
  • Limited to specific beige colorway
  • Requires proper layering to optimize the breathability benefits

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure your Dare 2b Diminish Cord Ski Pants remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:

  1. Fitting: Adjust the braces to a comfortable tension before hitting the slopes. Ensure the hem zips are fully closed over your boots to ensure the gaiters are properly seated.
  2. Compatibility: These pants are designed to be worn over thermals or thin leggings, depending on your local temperature, and fit comfortably over standard ski boots.
  3. Care Instructions: Always follow the care label inside the garment. Because of the cord-texture, avoid high-heat tumble drying or harsh bleaching agents. It is recommended to wash on a cool, gentle cycle using a technical fabric detergent to preserve the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish. Air dry to maintain the fabric structure.
