Warmth... enhanced at the seat: Warmseat
From the waistband of the trousers to the middle of the thigh, we added wadding with 54% more thermal insulation than standard wadding. The idea is simple: when snowboarding, you'll still find yourself sitting in the snow quite often. Given the time spent sitting down, we decided to increase the thermal insulation. And it's also very pleasant on the chairlifts.
Waterproofing
In addition to the waterproof fabric, we improved the waterproofing of the salopettes with taped seams. The adhesive and waterproof strips are placed on the seams inside the clothing to make it perfectly watertight. For this product, all the seams (100%) are taped.
What is the water repellent property of my salopettes for?
The water-repellent property of a fabric is its capacity to make water run off its surface without absorbing it thanks to a treatment applied to the outer surface of the fabric. The fabric does not soak up water and stays light and warm. This treatment must be renewed during the life of the product, after 2 to 3 washes on average, using products available in our stores. All the waterproof jackets that we design for snowboarders are water repellent.
PULL'N FIT ZIP CONCEPT
Thanks to the PULL'N FIT concept, adjustments to the leg length of the ski pants are made easy and precise. Your trousers will never be too short or too long with the PULL'N FIT system! Simply pull up the zips to shorten them!
Kneepad
To cope with inclement weather (rain, snow, wind, etc), the jacket was developed with a component and assembly that prevents water from getting in and reduces wind chill. To validate the waterproofing, the product was placed under a specially designed shower that reproduces the conditions encountered by snowboarders in the field. Finally, we spent a few days snowboarding, in all conditions, to validate the waterproofing of the product.
stops snow from getting inside
The idea of the salopettes is to prevent snow from getting to your back. Ultra efficient!
But snow can also get inside at the hems. However, this is where we added gaiters.
What's more, given that they are mainly for snowboarding, the gaiters have an opening so that you can reach the tightening knob of snowboard boots. Consequently, you don't have to put the gaiters back on when tightening your boots.
chest pocket
We took advantage of the salopettes to add a pocket at the chest. This is very practical and highly appreciated during the tests conducted by children.
Bathroom zip
For the boys' salopettes, we added a big central zip for getting them on/off easily.
But naturally, there is a double cursor for going to the bathroom by simply raising the lower cursor without having to completely lower the upper cursor.
Compatible with a back protector
These snowboard salopettes are designed to take a back protector under the salopettes.
Ideally, what worked well in all of the tests:
_ layer 1: thermal ski or snowboard underwear,
_ layer 2: fleece or other warm layer,
_ back,
_ salopettes,
_ jacket.
Option to write the child's name on the salopettes
If necessary, you can write the name of your child on the salopettes.
Reinforcements at the knees and seat
All of the material used in these snowboard salopettes is resistant to abrasion and tearing, but the seat and knees have an even more durable material. It's for snowboarding, which involves a few more falls than when skiing (and we like that), and these salopettes are designed to withstand everything.
How does my product warranty work?
This product is guaranteed for 5 years from the date shown on the sales receipt. A product covered by the warranty will be repaired or exchanged free of charge. The warranty covers product defects, excluding those resulting from normal wear and tear and improper use. This special 5-year warranty is only valid with the product and sales receipt.
How do you look after this product?
To optimise the performance and durability of your product, we recommend: Machine wash separately at 30°C. Synthetic cycle. No softener.
Given the thickness of the salopettes, they should be dried the right way round. Don't hesitate to turn them inside out to also dry the inside thoroughly.
Do not dry clean. Do not place on a radiator. You can restore the water resistance of the outer fabric using a fabric waterproofing spray.
