Using these snow pants is a breeze. Just put them on like regular pants and adjust the waist and hem according to your comfort. The easy - access pockets are great for storing snacks, tools, or small items you might need during your snow adventure. When you're done using them, simply machine - wash them on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid using harsh detergents as they can damage the fabric and the GORE - TEX® technology. After washing, let them air - dry. Don't expose them to direct sunlight for too long as it may fade the color. Store them in a cool, dry place when not in use to keep them in good condition.
