FAQs

What is the waterproof rating of these trousers?

These trousers have a waterproof rating of 5000mm, meaning they can withstand a significant amount of water pressure before leaking.

Are these trousers insulated for cold weather?

Yes, they feature PrimaLoft Gold Insulation Luxe and are thermal tested to -15°C, providing substantial warmth for cold conditions.

How many pockets do the trousers have?

The trousers are equipped with multiple pockets: 2 side pockets, 2 thigh pockets, and 2 back pockets, all with flap closures for security.

Can I adjust the fit of the waist?

Yes, the trousers feature an adjustable waistline and belt loops, allowing you to customize the fit for comfort and security.

What material are the trousers made from?

They are crafted from 100% recycled polyester, offering both durability and an environmentally friendly choice.

How should I clean and care for these ski trousers?

Machine wash cold (30°C) with a mild detergent, rinse thoroughly, and tumble dry on low heat or air dry. Avoid fabric softeners. Reapply a DWR finish periodically.

What does the breathability rating of 5000g/m²/24hrs mean?

This rating indicates that 5000 grams of water vapor can pass through the fabric from the inside to the outside in a 24-hour period, helping to keep you dry from sweat during physical activity.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel damp inside

Check breathability rating and ensure you are not overheating. Ensure no part of the gaiter or trousers is blocked. Consider if conditions exceed the garment's breathability capacity. Wash with a technical cleaner to restore membrane performance.

Water seeping through seams

The taped seams may be compromised. Inspect for damage. Professional repair or seam sealing might be necessary. Ensure washing instructions (avoiding fabric softener) have been followed.

Zipper is stiff or stuck

Use a graphite pencil or wax to lubricate the zipper teeth. Gently work the zipper back and forth. Avoid forcing it.

Snow entering through ankle gaiters

Ensure the snow gaiters are correctly positioned over the top of your ski boots and tucked in securely. Adjust the drawstring on the gaiter if applicable.

  • High-quality insulation for warmth in cold temperatures.
  • Multiple pockets offer convenient storage for ski essentials.
  • Made from sustainable, recycled materials.
  • Adjustable features ensure a comfortable and secure fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These are ready-to-wear ski trousers. Ensure the adjustable waistline is set for a comfortable fit before use. The button and zip fly provide secure closure. The snow gaiters should be placed over ski boots to create a seal.

Compatibility: Designed primarily for skiing and snowboarding. Compatible with most ski boots. The straight-leg fit allows for easy layering underneath.

Care:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold (30°C) with a mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can clog the waterproof/breathable membranes.
  2. Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly after washing.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low heat setting or air dry. Do not use harsh heat sources.
  4. Re-waterproofing: Periodically reapply a DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish to maintain water resistance, following the product instructions for the chosen treatment.
