Straps

For warmth, we used insulating fill (60 m²g/m²). This synthetic, polyester-based lining traps air according to the size of the fibres to keep you warm.

Which fabrics are used to make my pants warm?

We lab test our products to provide you with a comfort indicator. The comfort indicator is measured without tights for pants, and with a thermal T-shirt and a fleece for jackets. The temperature indicated is the external temperature at which the testers were neither warm nor cold. Of course, the perceived temperature varies depending on the intensity of the activity and each individual’s metabolism.

How is comfort temperature measured?

The regular fit allows the pants to be combined with a technical base layer.

What is the fit of the 100 Ski Pants?

The resistance of a fabric is measured by the height of a water column in mm. The higher the pressure, the more waterproof the fabric. Fabric with a waterproof rating of 5,000 mm is resistant to the pressure exerted by a 5,000 mm column of water.
For skiing, we recommend fabrics rated 5,000 to 20,000 mm. At Decathlon, we lab test all of our waterproof products. This product's rating is?/ 5 In a shower test.

How is your pants’ water resistance measured?

These pants have elastic gaiters at the ankles to cover your boots. The seal created by the gaiters keeps the snow out.

How can I prevent snow from getting in my pants?

To optimize your product’s performance and durability: 
*Machine wash at 30°C on a synthetics cycle. 
*Turn the product inside out.
*Use a small amount of detergent. Do not use fabric softener.
*Wring by hand. 
*Dry on a hanger in a warm, well-ventilated place.
Do not dry clean. Do not place on a radiator.

How should I wash my pants?

We commit to repairing your product free of charge for the duration of the warranty. If you need the seams, zippers, or another element repaired, contact your store. However, if we can’t repair your product (production defect), we will exchange it or reimburse you.

In addition to the padding, which components provide warmth?

The membrane is a very fine component applied to the inner surface of the outer jacket fabric. This component prevents water from seeping in while wicking away perspiration. The membrane is unbeatable when it comes to keeping you warm and dry.

What is a membrane and what does it do?

A fabric’s water resistance is measured by the height of a water column in mm it can support (test based on the ISO 811 standard). The higher the pressure, the more waterproof the fabric. A component with a water resistance of 8,000 mm therefore withstands the pressure exerted by 8,000 mm of water.

How is the water resistance of a jacket measured?

The 500 jacket is made of sturdy, water-resistant materials that reduce wind chill for better protection against the elements. To check its waterproof rating, this jacket was tested under a special shower test that replicates the conditions skiers face. This jacket’s waterproofing was field-tested in various weather conditions for several days.

Which parts of the jacket protect me in bad weather?

Water repellency is a material’s ability to let water bead off the surface without being absorbed. This jacket features water-repellent components that improve its weather resistance. The exterior surface of the fabric is treated to make it water-repellent.

What is the water-repellent feature of my jacket for?

Bear in mind that the water-repellent feature can be reactivated. To do this, you can use a waterproof spray (sold in our stores): spray the product evenly over the entire item, then allow to dry for 10 to 12 hours.

How to reactivate your jacket’s water repellency

This jacket wicks moisture away. To determine a fabric’s breathability, we measure its resistance to evaporative heat (RET) based on a standardized ISO 11092 test. The lower the RET, the more breathable the fabric.The 500 ski jacket has a RET of 11. However, it is Wedze’s technical solutions (zippers, vents, mesh) that reduce condensation and maximize breathability.

What is a breathable jacket?

Slim fit. The jacket’s sides are straight rather than fitted. This jacket is roomy enough to be worn over a first and second technical layer.

How does the 500 ski jacket fit?

To stay warm and dry, we recommend using the 3-layer technique: 
- Layer 1 or second skin, to stay dry. 
- Layer 2 or insulating layer, to keep the heat in.
- Layer 3 to protect against the elements.

How to dress to stay warm on the slopes

The snow skirt adjusts automatically, and adjustable cuffs block drafts and snow, especially in the event of a fall.

Keeps snow out if you fall

* Close all the zippers on the jacket.
* Turn it inside out.
* Machine wash at 30°C on the delicate cycle with little detergent and no fabric softener. 
Important: Use a gentle/delicate spin cycle (less than 800 rpm). Spinning too fast may create clumps that are difficult to undo.

How should I wash my jacket?

Tumble dry (strongly recommended). 
* Gentle or delicate cycle. 
* Dry on several long cycles to dry completely. * If you do not have a dryer, it will take longer to dry (drying flat can take 1 to 2 weeks). Make sure you pat the jacket to avoid any lumps.

How do the PA 500 Ski Pants fit?

We lab-test each of our products to provide you with a value indicative of the item’s comfort temperature. This is measured without tights for pants, and with a thermal T-shirt and fleece for jackets. The measurement indicated is that of the external temperature in which our testers perceived a warmth of 0 (neither hot nor cold). Of course, this perceived temperature varies with the intensity of the activity and the metabolism of the individual.

To keep your legs warm and dry, two layers of clothing are enough:
- a ski base layer to wick away perspiration.
- ski pants to protect against bad weather and provide warmth.

Keeping your legs warm on the slopes

Air dry, but especially not on a radiator!
These gloves contain leather, and leather detests water: don’t wash them, even by hand, to avoid damaging them.
To keep them flexible and in the shape, hydrate the leather with a suitable balm, like one you would use on your own skin.

Leather care advice

These ski gloves have a water-resistant membrane (a very thin polymer film) between the lining and the outer part of the glove. This membrane acts as a barrier, making the product waterproof. The product’s exterior materials are also treated for water repellency. 
In extremely wet conditions, a glove with a membrane cannot be as "waterproof" as a glove made out of "rubber" type material.

Waterproof membrane

All Wedze gloves and mittens have a water-repellent treatment that makes water slide off the fabric’s surface instead of being absorbed. This means the fabric does not become saturated. It remains light and warm. A treatment applied to the outer surface makes the fabric water-repellent. To remain effective, this treatment must be reapplied every 2 to 3 washes with specific products that are available in our stores.

Water repellency

All Wedze gloves and mittens are windproof. Did you know that the wind makes you feel colder? At an outside temperature of 0°C and a wind speed of 20 km/h, the temperature will feel like -10°C. Windproof features reduce windchill due to wind speed or the relative speed of your activity.
