While highly protective, the Glide pants are primarily designed for resort skiing. They will perform well in moderate snow, but extreme backcountry conditions may require higher-tier technical shells.
Because of the slim-leg fit, we recommend wearing a lightweight, performance-grade base layer rather than heavy thermal trousers.
Periodically clean the pants to remove salt and dirt, then apply a specialized DWR treatment when you notice water no longer beads off the fabric.
Yes, they are machine washable on a gentle cycle, but turning them inside out is required to protect the crystal details.
They are made of softshell fabric, which provides a balance of wind protection and warmth, but they are not heavily insulated like a dedicated puffer pant.
The 15/15 rating refers to a 15,000mm waterproof head and 15,000g/m2/24hr breathability rating, suitable for most winter sports conditions.
The DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating may have worn off. Apply a technical re-proofing spray to restore the water-beading performance.
Ensure the hem gussets are fully unzipped. If they are still tight, check if the boot buckle positioning is creating excess bulk.
Avoid machine drying at high temperatures. Always air dry in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources to protect the embellishments.
To prepare for use, ensure the hem gussets are fully unzipped before sliding into your ski boots, then zip them closed to secure the seal around the boot cuff. The built-in snow gaiters should be pulled over the outside of your boot to prevent internal snow entry. For care, it is recommended to wash the garment on a gentle cycle with a technical detergent designed for waterproof apparel. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can degrade the waterproof coating. Due to the Swarovski crystal embellishments, always turn the pants inside out before washing or consider hand-washing to ensure the longevity of the decorative elements.
