TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
Trousers ready to face the extreme cold?
Our trousers have the ability to keep you warm in temperatures as low as -14°C. With their brushed fabric lining that traps air in and has insulating properties, a thermal barrier is formed that retains body heat. The windproof fabric used enhances protection against the cold
How is thermal comfort measured?
The thermal resistance test shows the loss of heat between the body and the outside, indicating the product’s insulating properties. It is carried out on the fabric using thermal probes or on clothing with thermal models, measuring the conservation of body heat
How do they protect against the snow?
When hiking, the lower leg can be a weak point against snow by letting it get into your shoes. That’s why we came up with the idea to tighten the bottoms of these trousers to prevent snow from getting in
Why choose water-repellent trousers?
These hiking trousers are designed using a water-repellent fabric that makes water bead, preventing it from seeping through. So even in light rain or in damp environments, you stay dry. For even greater protection, we’ve added waterproof reinforcements on the buttocks and lower legs
How to restore the water-repellent properties?
To maintain effectiveness, you must regularly re-apply the water repellent treatment, ideally after each wash. Specially-designed accessory products, in spray or liquid form, are available in our shops or on our website
How do these trousers give freedom of movement?
We designed these trousers with stretch fabric for maximum essential freedom of movement when hiking.
We have also fitted them with a wide elasticated waistband that covers the hips, the lower back and stomach for maximum comfort when out on each one of your hikes

TESTS AND WARRANTY
Test product
We carry out 2 types of thermal testing: — A test of the trousers’ material, — A test on a thermal mannequin in a thermal chamber, Here, we reproduce the kind of temperature, wind (5 km/h) and humidity conditions you will encounter in the mountains when walking at 5 km/h. These tests help us validate our design choices so we can adapt the thermal insulation where you need it most.
Warranty
2 Years
