Is this trouser warm enough to wear on its own?

This model is designed to provide good thermal insulation during your winter outings. However, in very cold conditions or for more static activities, we recommend adding a base layer underneath to ensure optimal comfort.

Does this trouser protect against rain?

This trouser is water-repellent and windproof: it sheds water and snow from its surface. It will protect you during moderate showers. However, it is not a replacement for fully waterproof overtrousers in heavy, sustained rain.

What are the delivery times for this product?

If you place your order before 1 pm (excluding weekends), it will be dispatched the same day. Allow 2 to 4 working days for home delivery or collection point delivery within mainland France.

Can I return the item if the size doesn't fit?

Yes, absolutely. You have 30 days to return it and get a refund or an exchange. Return shipping is free. The item must be new, unworn, unwashed, and have its original tag.

Who did we design it for?

For women mountaineers moving on committed routes in cold conditions — snow couloirs, ridges, mixed faces.

It is designed for women who alternate active crampon climbing with static exposed sections on the same outings.

Those who need to open their trousers with two zip pulls mid-ascent.

How should you wear it?

Worn as a base layer for mountaineering and technical winter outings. In extreme cold, wear a thermal base layer underneath. Braces adjust via Velcro. Your usual size is suitable.

What makes the difference?

Its adjustable straps and double lateral ventilation zips allow real-time adjustment of ventilation and support, from the crampon ascent to the belay on the wall.

The mountaineering trouser that handles effort

In mountaineering, thermal management is a constant exercise. Climbing in crampons overheats you. Belaying on a north face chills you. A single pair of trousers must handle both extremes.

This trouser was designed for committing outings in cold conditions. Its large dual-zip side openings regulate heat in real time. Adjustable braces keep the trouser high on the torso regardless of range of movement. The crampon-guard reinforcements absorb contact with crampons.

From the approach to the face.

In summary This content is written by AI

Customers first appreciate the quality and finish, described as very good by some buyers, along with the comfort-focused details and a fit that one customer calls excellent. Two customers tested it in fresh or deep snow, strong winds and temperatures of –10°C, reporting complete protection; another highlights its thermal comfort. However, the cut can be too tight at the waist and either too long or too short in the legs, so check your measurements carefully before choosing.

So far, I have only tried it. The size is very good. For the side openings I would put a minus because I have a pair of pants (from another brand for 30 years) and the opening goes up to the knee. For spring hikes it's nice. But for now, nothing to complain about, it matches the description.

VERY GOOD on the website it is noted that it runs small, but I do not find this to be the case.
