Description & Features
The Arctica Adult Side Zip Ski Pant is built for alpine racers who need warmth, weather protection, and quick layering over a ski race suit. DURA10 waterproof and breathable nylon, fully taped seams, and lightweight HEAT40 insulation provide protection from cold and snow without unnecessary bulk, while articulated knees maintain mobility on the mountain.
Two-way full side zippers allow the pants to be put on or removed without taking off ski boots, making them especially practical for course inspection, warm-ups, and time between race runs. A fleece-lined adjustable waistband and removable suspenders help secure the fit, while Cordura scuff guards reinforce high-wear areas for dependable race-season durability.

Construction & Technology
DURA10 Waterproof & Breathable Fabric
Arctica's DURA10 nylon shell provides 10K waterproof and breathable performance for protection from snow and changing mountain weather. Fully taped seams reinforce the weather barrier, helping racers stay dry during course inspection, training, and long days at the race venue.
HEAT40 Insulation
HEAT40 synthetic insulation provides lightweight warmth while keeping bulk under control. The construction is particularly suited to ski racing, where the pants need to layer comfortably over a speed suit while allowing racers to move freely on snow.
Two-Way Full Side-Zip Construction
Full-length two-way side zippers allow racers to put the pants on or take them off without removing their ski boots. This race-focused design makes it easy to stay warm during course inspection and between runs, then quickly remove the pants before heading to the start.
Race-Ready Mobility & Durability
Articulated knees support natural skiing movement, while Cordura scuff guards reinforce the lower legs against repeated ski-edge and boot contact. Snow cuffs help seal around the boots, and the fleece-lined adjustable waistband and removable suspenders provide multiple ways to secure the fit throughout the race day.
