Main Material

The BL 500 soft thermal base layer comes in a slim fit.
It offers a second skin effect with a slim fit that limits chafing.

Polyamide is the strongest of all raw textile materials, even when wet, and it is very stretchy.
Thanks to its natural properties, this breathable fibre provides very good moisture management and good temperature regulation while reducing odours.
These specially textured, super-soft yarns give the fabric a silky, natural feel. Ideal for tight, seamless clothing.

Benefits of polyamide

Thanks to its bodymapping technology and brushed polyamide fibre created with I-Soft technology, this second skin will evenly distribute body heat.

Technical product structure

The I-Soft technology enhances the fabric’s performance, providing a variety of benefits: soft, feeling of warmth, comfort on the skin. It also increases product performance with better thermoregulation, moisture wicking, and thermal insulation. To achieve this softness, the base layer is brushed.

What is I-Soft technology?

The innovative I-Band technology at the waist means the fabric stays in place and does not ride up. Also, the top and bottom of our I-Soft tops are equipped with this technology so you can focus on your sport.

What is I-Band technology?

You only need three technical layers to stay warm on the slopes: Layer 1 or a base layer, to stay dry. - Layer 2, an insulating layer to keep the heat in. Layer 3 or a protective layer, to protect against bad weather.

Sizing

This sock is made with an anti-friction yarn.
Blisters are generally caused by socks, shoes, or foreign objects chafing feet. Humidity also plays a role, as it makes skin more vulnerable.
Chafing is reduced when the sock stays in place.
Some of our socks have anti-friction yarn to reduce irritation.

You need three technical layers to keep warm on the slopes:
- 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.

Polyester is the most commonly-used fibre for base garments because it is relatively inexpensive and offers excellent performance in various respects, and especially because the fibres can be knitted to obtain a very lightweight and durable fabric. It actively absorbs moisture but does not dry particularly well when wet.

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 the water column (measured in mm) that the fabric can withstand (test based on the ISO 811 standard). 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.

Glove Type

Reinforced Palm

To Bring Warmth

leash

Tightening Type

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 of the component

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. Only a rubber glove is watertight. Under extremely wet conditions, a glove with a membrane will have limited waterproofness.

Waterproof membrane

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 (12 mph), the temperature will feel like -10°C.Windproof fabrics limit wind chill and cold.

An elastic drawstring goes around your wrist so you can remove the gloves on ski lifts without losing them.

Anti-loss system

It reflects how easily you can handle objects while wearing the glove. All our gloves are field-tested and given a dexterity score on a scale of 1 to 5. Gloves with a dexterity score of 5 allow you to handle objects just as you would with bare hands. 
The dexterity score is based on how well we could remove and put on ski goggles, adjust the hooks on a ski boot, and open and close a jacket.
