3D hood
We've integrated a hood with a 3D tightening system that's easy to adjust in a single gesture. The cut of the hood is designed to follow the movements of your head without getting in the way. It is compatible with helmets.
The hood is preformed with a high collar for face protection in intense cold or windy conditions. The zipper flap is micro-perforated to facilitate breathing while protecting the face.
Sleeves
Wide, adjustable sleeves to slip over gloves to protect you from the snow and keep you dry and warm. Elastane cuffs with push-through fasteners ensure a hermetic seal at the glove/jacket junction.
Ventilation
To stay dry, it's important to have a waterproof outfit. But you don't want to get wet from sweating.
Ventilation plays an important role in wicking away perspiration.
That's why we've equipped this onepiece with 4 ventilation zips: two large zips under the arms (35cm in size L). And 2 ventilation zips along the thighs.
Cut
The ample cut and preformed sleeves are there to free your movements and allow you to ski in complete freedom.
The one-piece concept and the lightness of the component guarantee good fluidity and freedom of movement.
What should I wear under my One Piece?
To stay warm and dry, apply the 3-layer rule: ski underwear and an undershirt, layer 2 to keep warm, layer 3 to protect against the elements.
Layer 1 keeps you dry by transferring perspiration from the skin to the other layers.
Layer 2 provides warmth, as in a down jacket or fleece pullover.
For the Onepiece, this rule applies to both the top and the bottom.
Water-repellent
A fabric's water repellency is its ability to let water slide off its surface without absorbing it. This means the fabric doesn't become waterlogged, remaining light, breathable and warm. Water repellency is achieved by a treatment applied to the outside of the fabric. This treatment needs to be renewed over the life of the garment (we recommend every 3 washes). All Wedze jackets are water-repellent.
Component impermeability
The resistance of a fabric to water pressure is measured in mm water column (test based on ISO 811). The higher the pressure, the more waterproof the fabric. A component with a waterproof rating of 20,000 mm will therefore withstand the pressure exerted by 20,000 mm of water.
Component breathability
Pour savoir si un tissu est respirant, on mesure sa résistance évaporative RET (test basé sur la norme ISO 11092). Plus la résistance est faible, plus le tissu laisse s’échapper la vapeur d'eau générée par le corps en activité et plus il est respirant. Par exemple : RET < 9 = tissu extrêmement respirant / 9 < RET < 12 = tissu très respirant / 12 < RET < 20 = tissu respirant / RET > 20 = tissu peu ou pas respirant.
What is a membraned or coated component?
The coating is like a paint applied to the inside of the fabric, making the component waterproof yet breathable. The membrane is a kind of very thin plastic film (polyurethane) that requires a lining to protect it and make the component waterproof yet breathable. It has the advantage of being more flexible, lighter, more durable and often more breathable than coating.
How do you make a waterproof garment?
A garment's waterproofness is linked to its component, the waterproofness of the seams and the design of the assembly.
Then we carry out shower tests on our garments.
Waterproofing / Shower test
This garment has been validated in a shower test under 100L of water/m²/hour for 3 hours. This test reproduces the conditions of a heavy mountain storm.
How do you make a breathable garment?
In addition to the breathability of our fabrics, we use technical solutions (zips, vents, mesh, etc.) to improve the overall ventilation of our jackets and pants designed for freeride skiing. These ventilation systems both regulate the temperature inside the garment and facilitate the evacuation of perspiration generated by the body during exercise.
Your product is repairable
This product is repairable.
During the warranty period, we will repair your product free of charge. Whether it's snags, seams, zips, etc. These solutions will be proposed to you in your usual store.
If, however, we are unable to repair your product (non-repairable production defect), you will be able to exchange it or have it refunded.
What is the RECCO® System?
100% of our freeride ski jackets and pants are equipped with the RECCO® system.
With RECCO® technology you can be located in the event of an avalanche accident. Equipped with RECCO® reflectors, a buried person can be located quickly and accurately by the rescue services using the RECCO® detector. RECCO reflectors do not replace the use of a avalanche beacon. Complementary in function, RECCO® technology increases the chances of being found in time.
To help you choose the right size
The model wears a L and measures 180 cm.
Her measurements are:
Waist: 85 cm
Hips: 100 cm
Chest: 100 cm
Washing your waterproof garment tutorial
We advise you to follow this protocol every time you wash your garment, in order to preserve all its technical characteristics.

After three washes, we recommend reactivating the water-repellency by spray or impregnation treatment.
Mountain safety
Mountain safety for skiers and snowboarders venturing off the marked trails is not to be taken lightly.
It is important to wear appropriate safety equipment, such as helmets, avalanche transceivers, shovels and probes, and to practice their use regularly. Finally, it's important never to go off-piste on your own, and to call on the services of a qualified mountain guide if necessary.
