These ski salopettes have all the features Freeriding pants: waterproofing, breathability, ventilation. Anything else? It effectively protects the backs of our budding freeriders.
BACK PROTECTOR
This is the biggest benefit of these Freeride salopettes. This back protector is compliant with PPE standards. It is made of soft PU foam to not hinder movements and it has micro-perforations for good back ventilation. As it slots into the salopettes, it stays securely in position whatever the situation. At last, a solution to having a back protector that keeps coming out of the pants or one that is poorly positioned!
When washing the salopettes, simply remove it beforehand.
WHAT IS THE WATER-REPELLENT FEATURE OF MY SALOPETTES FOR?
The water-repellent property of a fabric is its capacity to allow water to run off its surface without seeping in. Our FREERIDE pants and salopettes are equipped with water-repellent components that prolong their resistance to the weather. This is an additional technical solution for staying dry for as long as possible! Regularly restore this treatment using the products sold in our stores to maintain these properties.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A MEMBRANE AND A COATING?
These pants 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.
ARE THESE SALOPETTES WATERPROOF?
A component with a waterproof rating of 10,000 mm can therefore withstand the pressure exerted by a 10,000 mm column of water.
In addition to the waterproof fabric, the waterproofing of these salopettes is enhanced with taped seams. These are waterproof adhesive strips taped to the inside seams of the garment to make it perfectly watertight.
TUTORIAL ON HOW TO WASH YOUR WATERPROOF GARMENT
With each wash, we recommend that you follow the protocol in the video below to preserve all the technical features of your garment.

After 3 washes, we recommend reactivating the water-repellent properties with a waterproof spray or waterproof impregnation treatment.
ARE MY SALOPETTES BREATHABLE?
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 vapor 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 RECCO SYSTEM?
With RECCOยฎ technology, you can be located in the event of an avalanche. Someone who is equipped with RECCOยฎ reflectors and is buried in the snow can be quickly and accurately located by the emergency services using the RECCOยฎ tracker. RECCO reflectors are not a substitute for an avalanche beacon. The RECCO technology works as a complementary measure, increasing the chances of being found in time. All our Freeride jackets and pants are equipped with the RECCO system.
