FAQs
Are these pants fully waterproof?
Yes, they feature a 35,000mm water column rating and fully taped seams to ensure complete waterproof protection in heavy snow or rain.
Can I remove the braces?
The braces are designed to be adjustable for a secure fit, and you should check your specific model tags to see if they are detachable.
How should I wash these ski pants?
Use a technical gear wash on a cool, gentle cycle. Avoid fabric softeners and bleaching agents, and always dry them naturally.
Do these pants run true to size?
They are designed for a standard athletic fit, but it is recommended to consider your layering choices when choosing your size.
What is the benefit of the tab-up hem?
The tab-up hem prevents your pant cuffs from dragging on the ground when you are wearing street shoes, which reduces wear and keeps them clean.
Troubleshooting
Water soaking into the outer fabric layer
The DWR finish may need reactivating; wash the garment and follow with a heat-based reproofing spray or tumble dry on a low setting if care instructions allow.
Feeling damp inside the pants
This is often caused by condensation from overheating; try removing a layer or opening base vents to improve moisture management.
Adjustable waist slipping
Ensure the velcro or adjustment tabs are pressed firmly together and clear of any loose debris or fabric lint.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, adjust the waist system before heading out, as these pants are designed to be worn over thermal base layers. The adjustable braces should be fitted so they remain snug on the shoulders without digging in. For maintenance, wash the pants on a gentle cycle using a technical detergent suitable for waterproof clothing to preserve the durable water-repellent (DWR) finish. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can impair the breathability and waterproof performance of the ARED membrane. Always air dry the pants away from direct heat sources to maintain the integrity of the material.
