Product Information
Full details
The Fusalp Tipi Fuseau ski pants are designed for female skiers who demand a sophisticated, tailored aesthetic without sacrificing technical performance on the mountain. These pants provide exceptional mobility and warmth through their stretch-bonded fleece construction and windproof, water-repellent membrane. While they offer a flattering, slim-flared silhouette suitable for all-day wear, potential buyers should note that the slim-fit design requires careful size selection to ensure adequate layering room beneath the garment.

FAQs
Are these pants waterproof?
They feature a water-repellent treatment and a technical membrane, making them highly resistant to snow and light moisture, though they are categorized as softshell rather than fully seam-sealed hardshell pants.
How should I choose the right size?
The Tipi Fuseau features a slim, tailored fit. If you prefer to wear heavy base layers underneath, you may want to consider sizing up from your standard dress size.
Can I use these for backcountry skiing?
While the stretch properties are excellent for climbing, their weight and focus on resort-style warmth may be better suited for resort skiing rather than high-exertion backcountry skinning.
What is the material composition?
The pants are primarily constructed from technical polyester featuring a bonded fleece lining for warmth and wind resistance.
Do I need to wear a belt with these?
The high-waisted design is tailored to sit securely on the waist; however, if you find the fit loose, ensure the waist is properly aligned before zipping.
Troubleshooting
Snow entering the bottom of the pant leg
Check that the integrated snow gaiter is pulled completely over the boot shell and that the anti-slip elastic is flat against the boot surface.
Fabric appears to hold moisture
The DWR finish may have worn off. Wash the garment and apply a high-quality DWR restoration spray, then tumble dry on low heat if the care label permits.
Pros and Cons

- Excellent wind and water protection for cold-weather comfort

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For optimal performance, ensure the integrated snow gaiters are pulled securely over your ski boot cuffs before locking your boots. To maintain the integrity of the water-repellent coating and the elasticity of the fabric, always wash the pants in cold water using a mild, technical detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can degrade the membrane's ability to repel water. Hang-dry the garment away from direct heat sources to prevent damage to the bonded materials. If you notice water no longer beads on the surface, a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) refresh spray can be applied after a thorough cleaning.
