SIZING INFORMATION
Slim fit with enough space inside for wearing tights underneath, such as our 500 tights.
Ski overalls
These salopettes are also called “ski overalls”: you can wear them at warm-up, over competition tights, and thanks to its full zip running the length of your leg, you can take them off just before your start, without having to remove your shoes. A real benefit in terms of convenience!
WATER-REPELLENT PROPERTIES
We've designed some water-repellent clothing to protect you during your cross-country skiing outings in the snow.
The water-repellent property of a fabric is its capacity to make water run off its surface without absorbing it. A fabric is made water-repellent by applying a treatment to its outer surface.
This keeps the fabric breathable.
How to stay warm and dry during my cross-country skiing outings?
We recommend the 3-layer technique.
Layer 1: second skin (technical base layer) wicks away moisture from the body to keep your skin dry.
Layer 2: insulating (t-shirt, fleece) layer that provides warmth and wicks away moisture outwards.
Layer 3: outer protective (jacket) layer that protects from the weather conditions: wind, snow and cold.
Adjust the number of layers to the level of your physical effort and the weather, and make sure that the clothing is breathable.
Why should you protect yourself from the wind?
Did you know that the wind makes you feel colder? Therefore, if the outdoor temperature is 0° with a wind-speed of 20 km, it will feel like -10°. So-called "windproof" components help to reduce this windchill by blocking the air flow resulting from the true wind and the forward motion of your sporting activity.
