Kids’ Ski Trousers - FR500 - Red

DESIGN

Simply designed trousers with all you need for good protection when practicing Freeskiing.

5000mm coating and 100% taped seams to keep your children warm.

2 large ventilation zips for when the temperature rises in the day or over the season. The aim is to remain cool and ski your best!

Adjustable waistband with rip-tab.

Length adjustment at the bottom of the trousers thanks to press studs.

Water repellency

The water-repellent property of a fabric is its capacity to allow water to run off its surface without seeping in. Our FREERIDE trousers and dungarees have water-repellent components that prolong their weather resistance. This is an additional technical solution for staying dry for as long as possible! You should repeat this treatment regularly using the products sold in our stores to maintain these properties.

Component waterproofing

The resistance of a fabric is measured by the height of a water column in mm that can be supported by the fabric (test based on the ISO 811 standard). The higher the pressure, the more waterproof the fabric. A fabric with a waterproof rating of 5000 mm is therefore resistant to the pressure exerted by a 5000 mm column of water

Breathability of a component

To find out if a fabric is breathable, we measure its total evaporative resistance RET (test based on the ISO 11092 standard). This is the capacity of the ski jacket to allow the water vapour produced by the body to escape during physical activity so that you stay dry. The lower the RET, the more breathable the fabric.

For example:

RET < 9 = extremely breathable fabric

/ 9 < RET < 12 = very breathable fabric /

12 < RET

< 20 = breathable fabric / RET > 20 = little or no breathability

What is the difference between a membrane and a coating?

These trousers have a membrane. The membrane is a kind of very thin plastic film (polyurethane) that makes the component waterproof while remaining breathable. It has the benefit of being more flexible, lightweight, durable and often more breathable than a coating, which is similar to having a layer of paint applied to the inside the fabric that makes the component waterproof while remaining breathable. It is often less costly than a membrane and requires a lining for protection.

How do we make a garment waterproof?

The waterproofing of the garment is related to its fabric, seam sealing, and assembly design.

Using a waterproof ZIP or adding a flap to the zip (covers the zips with a waterproof fabric flap).

How do we make a garment breathable?

In addition to the breathability of the fabrics used, we employ technical solutions (zips, vents, mesh) improving the overall ventilation of our jackets and trousers designed for Freeride skiing. These ventilation systems regulate the temperature inside the garment while also helping to eliminate the perspiration generated by the body during physical activity.

Your product is repairable

This product is repairable.

We commit to repairing your product free of charge for the duration of the warranty. Whatever it is, fixings, seams, zips, etc. This service is offered in your usual store.

If, however, we can’t repair your product (non-repairable production defect), you can exchange it or get a refund.

What is the RECCO® system?

With RECCO® technology, you can be located in the event of an avalanche. Someone who is buried in the snow can be quickly and accurately located by the emergency services using the RECCO® tracker and reflectors. RECCO reflectors are not a substitute for an AVD. The RECCO® technology works as a complementary measure, increasing the chances of being found in time. All our Freeride jackets and trousers are equipped with the RECCO system.

TUTORIAL ON HOW TO WASH YOUR WATERPROOF GARMENT

We recommend that you follow these guidelines at every wash in order to retain all the technical features of your garment.
