Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best fit, utilize the integrated belt to cinch the waist before starting your ascent. The hem adjusters should be tightened to prevent the fabric from catching on crampon points or rock edges.
For maintenance, wash the pants in cool to lukewarm water using a technical gear cleaner that preserves the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) coating. Avoid fabric softeners as they can clog the breathability of the EXOLITE fabric. It is recommended to periodically re-apply a DWR spray treatment to the outer surface if you notice water stopping to bead on the fabric.
