DWR, or Durable Water Repellent, is a treatment applied to fabrics that makes them water-resistant. This means that when it rains or snows, water will bead up and roll off the surface instead of soaking in. This feature is especially beneficial for outdoor activities like skiing and snowboarding, as it helps keep you dry and comfortable in wet conditions.

The breathability rating measures how well a fabric allows moisture, like sweat, to escape while keeping water out. A higher rating, such as 10,000g/m², means the fabric can release a significant amount of water vapor, helping to prevent overheating and keeping you dry during intense physical activities. This is crucial for maintaining comfort, especially during long days on the slopes.

Control Zone Ventilation is a design feature that allows you to regulate your body temperature by opening or closing vents in the clothing. When you start to feel too warm, you can open these vents to let in cool air, helping to maintain comfort during varying weather conditions and intense physical exertion.

The Extended Wear System (EWS) is a feature in children's clothing that allows for growth by adjusting the length of the legs by an additional two inches. This means that the bibs can be worn for multiple seasons as your child grows, providing a practical and cost-effective solution for parents looking to maximize the use of their children's clothing.

Skier Critical Sealing refers to a specialized method of sealing the seams in your garment to prevent water from leaking through. Critical seams are the areas most likely to let water in, such as where the fabric is stitched together. By ensuring these seams are sealed, your gear becomes more waterproof, which is essential for staying dry and comfortable in snowy or wet conditions.

The combination of DWR Coating, breathability ratings, Control Zone Ventilation, Extended Wear System, and Skier Critical Sealing work together to provide a comfortable, dry, and adaptable experience during outdoor activities. These features ensure that you can enjoy your time on the slopes or trails without worrying about the weather, allowing you to focus on having fun and performing your best.
