FAQs
Are these pants suitable for sub-zero temperatures?
Yes, they provide excellent wind protection. However, we recommend wearing a thermal base layer underneath for added warmth during extreme cold.
Can I iron these pants?
No, you should not iron these pants as the high heat can damage the synthetic polyester fabric and the waterproof membrane.
Are the Swarovski crystals fragile?
They are securely attached, but it is recommended to wash the pants inside out on a gentle cycle to minimize friction and impact.
Do these pants have pockets?
Yes, they feature strategically placed pockets suitable for carrying small essentials like a lift pass or lip balm.
What is the ARED 15/15 rating?
It means the fabric is rated for 15,000mm of waterproofing and 15,000g of breathability, providing high-performance protection in tough mountain conditions.
Troubleshooting
Water soaking through the fabric
The DWR coating may have worn off. Apply a wash-in or spray-on re-waterproofing treatment designed for technical ski wear.
Hem zipper sticking
Clear any debris or dried snow from the zipper track and apply a small amount of silicone lubricant if necessary.
Stains on white fabric
Spot clean immediately after use with a soft cloth and mild soap. Avoid aggressive scrubbing to protect the crystal embellishments.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Glide Ski Pants maintain their waterproof integrity and aesthetic finish, follow these guidelines:
- Cleaning: Wash in a machine on a gentle cycle using a technical cleaner specifically designed for waterproof outerwear. Avoid biological detergents and fabric softeners, as these can strip the durable water repellent (DWR) coating.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible. If machine drying is necessary, use a very low heat setting to avoid damaging the synthetic fibers or the decorative crystals.
- Storage: Hang in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, which can fade the fabric over time.
- Boot Compatibility: The hem gussets are designed to accommodate standard alpine ski boots. If you wear bulky backcountry touring boots, test the fit at home to ensure there is no excess tension on the seams.
