RECCO is a search technology used by rescue teams to locate individuals buried in an avalanche or lost in the outdoors via radar.
Yes, machine wash on a gentle cycle with a technical detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.
They feature a DWR finish, which makes them water-repellent. They are highly suitable for snow sports but should not be considered fully waterproof in extreme, prolonged downpours.
Isotherm is a lightweight, thermal insulation technology that helps retain body heat, keeping you warm without adding unnecessary bulk.
The trousers include belt loops if you prefer to use one, but the high-waist design and secure stud fastening are intended to provide a snug, secure fit on their own.
Ensure the internal snow gaiters are fully stretched over the shell of your ski boots and not tucked inside.
The DWR finish may have worn off. Clean the trousers and apply a spray-on or wash-in water repellent treatment.
Try adjusting your base layer thickness or using a thinner technical legging underneath to accommodate the slim-fit cut.
To ensure the longevity of your Avalanche trousers, always fasten the stud and zip fly before washing. These trousers are compatible with most standard ski and snowboard boots. To maintain the DWR finish, wash with a technical detergent designed for outdoor gear and avoid standard fabric softeners, which can clog the breathable pores of the fabric. If the trousers stop repelling water, tumble dry on a low setting or iron on a cool setting (per garment tag) to reactivate the water-repellent coating. Always ensure the snow gaiters are pulled securely over your boots before heading out to the lift.
