How can I be sure that my baby will be warm and cozy when sledding in the snow?
Our designers use wadding to keep the body warm. This polyester-based synthetic component stores air, depending on its thickness. The thicker the wadding, the more air it contains, and the more insulating it is. These baby ski pants keep you warm during winter sports outings.
How can I be sure that my baby will be dry when sledging in the snow?
We measure a fabric's resistance to water pressure expressed 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 2,000 mm will therefore withstand the pressure exerted by 2,000 mm of water. A guarantee for the quality of these baby ski pants.
How can I prevent snow from getting into my shoes?
Position the elastic band on the bottom of the pants over the boot, to prevent snow and air from entering the snow boot.
How do you dress your babies to keep them warm on your sledging outings?
To stay warm and dry, simply apply the 3-layer rule:
- Layer 1, or thermal underwear, to keep you dry.
- Layer 2, or insulating layer, to keep you warm.
- Layer 3, or protective layer, to protect you from the elements.
What is water repellency?
A water-repellent fabric lets water slide off its surface, without absorbing it: the textile doesn't become waterlogged, and remains light and breathable. You can see water droplets beading and trickling down the surface of the fabric. 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 (every 3 washes).
How to reactivate water repellency?
To reactivate water-repellency, we recommend that you wash your returned garment on a synthetic program at 30°C and rinse thoroughly. You can use your usual detergent, but not fabric softener. Leave your jacket to air-dry flat on a drying rack. Finally, tumble dry your garment right-side-up on low heat for 10 minutes. The heat will reactivate the fabric's water-repellent properties.
Where can I write my baby's name on these winter overalls?
There's a space to write your child's name to personalize the product. A useful tip for finding your baby's ski pants at nursery or day-care this winter.
How is the waterproof component of these baby ski overalls tested?
The waterproofness of a fabric, ensured by a coating or membrane, is measured in Schmerber or mm H20 (pressure exerted by a column of water). The higher the number, the more waterproof the fabric.
These baby ski pants are designed with a coated waterproof component (JIS 1092 standard): this component resists 5000 mm H20 (Schmerber) before washing (i.e. the pressure exerted by 5 meters of water column).
