FAQs
Are these pants suitable for snowboarding?
Yes, the four-way stretch and articulated design provide excellent freedom of movement for both skiers and snowboarders.
Can I remove the bib part completely?
Yes, the Achieve II features a detachable bib system, allowing you to use them as standard ski pants.
What does ARED 30/30 mean?
It refers to the fabric's high-level waterproof rating (30,000mm) and high breathability rating (30,000g/m²/24h).
Do I need to wear thermals underneath?
While the pants are designed to keep you warm, we recommend wearing a moisture-wicking base layer to improve overall comfort and moisture management.
How should I store these after the season?
Clean them thoroughly, ensure they are completely dry, and store them on a hanger in a cool, dry place.
Troubleshooting
Water penetration during heavy snow
Check that the DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finish is still active. If water stops beading on the surface, re-apply a technical wash-in or spray-on DWR treatment.
Bib straps slipping during use
Ensure the clips are securely locked into the attachment points and adjust the tension sliders so they sit flush against your shoulders.
Breathability seems reduced
Wash the garment according to the care instructions to remove salt and sweat build-up that can block the fabric pores.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your Achieve II Ski Pants, focus on proper fit and maintenance. Use the adjustable waistband tabs to secure the pants over your preferred base layers. If utilizing the detachable bib, attach the suspenders before putting the pants on to ensure the clips are properly seated.
For care, wash these garments on a cool, delicate cycle using a technical fabric detergent. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can clog the breathable pores of the ARED membrane. Always hang dry the pants in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators to prevent damage to the waterproof coating.
