How do I care for my salopettes to maintain their performance?
Machine wash at 30°C on a gentle cycle, do not bleach or tumble dry, and iron on a low setting on the inside. Avoid fabric softeners and dry cleaning.
Do these salopettes have taped seams?
No, the product information indicates there are no taped seams or reflective details.
Troubleshooting
Salopettes feel damp inside
Ensure the breathability rating is sufficient for your activity level. Check that the garment is not inside-out during washing and that fabric softeners were not used, as these can clog membrane pores. Make sure all zippers are properly closed to prevent moisture ingress.
Snow enters the salopettes at the ankle
Ensure the elasticated inner cuffs are pulled down and snug around your ski boots. Check that the silicone grippers are clean and free of debris, as this can affect their grip.
Zipper is difficult to use
Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. If there is fabric caught, carefully pull it away. You can apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth for smoother operation. Ensure zippers are closed before washing.
Fit feels too tight or restrictive
While designed with a slim fit and stretch, if movement is significantly restricted, consider if the base and mid-layers are too bulky. The Holymoly salopettes are designed for a streamlined fit, so bulky underlayers may affect perceived roominess.
