Tritech 15K/15K – reliable protection against water and wind

Tritech is a technical membrane by 2117 of Sweden, designed to efficiently protect against external weather conditions and regulate moisture during physical activity.

In the HUMLA model, it provides 15,000 mm water column and 15,000 g/m²/24 h breathability.

This ratio provides a good balance between weather protection and comfort during active skiing.

Main advantages

• Waterproofness 15,000 mm: high protection against snow and moisture.

• Breathability 15,000 g/m²/24 h: efficient removal of water vapor.

• Wind protection: reduces the impact of cold air.

• Body microclimate regulation: helps maintain a pleasant temperature.

• Suitable for active skiing: functionality during movement.

• Versatile protection: suitable for various winter conditions.

What does a 15,000 mm water column mean?

The water column indicates the material's resistance to water penetration under a certain pressure.

A value of 15,000 mm means a high level of water resistance of the material, suitable for skiing in snowy and wet winter conditions.

The actual protection level also depends on the seams, zippers, and other construction details.

What does breathability of 15,000 g/m²/24 h mean?

Breathability indicates the amount of water vapor that can pass through one square meter of material in 24 hours under laboratory conditions.

A value of 15,000 g/m²/24 h provides good breathability for active skiing.

The membrane helps remove moisture generated during physical activity and reduces the feeling of dampness under the pants.

ALTO Wool Padding – lightweight insulation with natural wool

ALTO Wool Padding is a special thermal insulation that combines natural wool and recycled synthetic fibers.

In HUMLA ski pants, insulation with a weight of 80 g is used, consisting of 30% wool and 70% recycled polyester.

This combination provides pleasant thermal protection, low weight, and comfort during winter activities.

Main advantages

• 80 g insulation: lightweight thermal protection without excessive bulk.

• 30% wool: natural fibers with thermal insulating properties.

• 70% recycled polyester: lightweight and functional synthetic fibers.

• Pleasant warmth: comfort during skiing.

• Low volume: easy movement and folding of the garment.

• Balanced insulation: suitable for active winter sports.

• Material combination: connecting natural and recycled fibers.

Why is wool suitable for ski garments?

Wool is a natural fiber known for its good thermal insulating properties.

Its structure allows it to retain air, which contributes to thermal protection.

In combination with recycled polyester, ALTO Wool Padding provides a good balance between warmth, low weight, and practicality.

Advantage during all-day skiing

During skiing, intense descents, chairlift rides, and breaks alternate.

ALTO Wool Padding helps maintain pleasant warmth even during periods of lower physical activity, when the body cools down faster.

Two-layer stretchy construction – freedom of movement

2117 HUMLA BLACK use a two-layer material with stretch properties.

Such construction allows a better fit to the body and reduces restriction of movement during skiing.

Main advantages

• Stretchy material: more freedom of movement.

• Two-layer construction: effective connection of the outer material and membrane.

• Comfortable fit: adapts to different body positions.

• Easy knee bending: suitable for active skiing.

• Material stability: comfort during longer use.

• Versatility: suitable for various winter activities.

Why is stretchiness important?

During skiing, the body is constantly moving, and the knees and hips are often in a bent position.

Stretch material allows the pants to follow body movement and reduces the feeling of tightness.

This is especially important during dynamic turns, walking in ski boots, and sitting on chairlifts.

PFC-Free DWR – PFC-free water-repellent treatment

PFC-Free DWR is a water-repellent treatment of the outer material that helps reduce water absorption.

DWR stands for Durable Water Repellent, a durable water-repellent treatment.

The HUMLA model uses a treatment without added PFC compounds.

Main advantages

• Water-repellent surface: water droplets roll off the material.

• Less moisture absorption: the outer material stays less saturated for longer.

• Additional weather protection: complements the membrane's function.

• Better comfort: less feeling of wet outer material.

• No PFC: water-repellent treatment without this group of chemicals.

• Practical use: suitable for snowy and wet conditions.

How does DWR work?

The water-repellent treatment causes water droplets on the material's surface to form beads and roll off.

It is important to distinguish between DWR treatment, which reduces water absorption into the outer material, and the Tritech membrane, which provides the main waterproof protection.

The effectiveness of DWR treatment can gradually decrease with washing and use, so proper care is important.

Partially taped seams – additional moisture protection

Critically Taped Seams means that particularly exposed seams are additionally sealed with sealing tape.

Such construction helps reduce the possibility of water penetrating through seam openings in important areas.

Main advantages

• Protection of exposed seams: reduced moisture penetration.

• Membrane complement: additional protection against wet snow.

• Comfort in winter conditions: less chance of the interior getting wet.

• Functional construction: protection in important areas.

• Suitable for skiing: practical when in contact with snow.

The difference between partially and fully taped seams

For the HUMLA model, the manufacturer states partially taped seams, which means that not all seams of the garment are necessarily sealed.

Such a design provides additional protection in the most exposed areas, but it should not be equated with fully taped seams.

Windproof – protection from cold wind

2117 HUMLA BLACK have a windproof construction that reduces the passage of cold air through the material.

Wind protection is especially important when skiing, since the speed of movement can increase the feeling of cold.

Main advantages

• Wind protection: reduces body cooling.

• Better thermal comfort: complements the ALTO Wool Padding insulation.

• Suitable for chairlifts: protection while stationary.

• Versatility: suitable for various winter conditions.

• Comfortable skiing: less unpleasant feeling of cold air.

The windproof construction combined with insulation and membrane enables effective protection during activity.

Removable suspenders – adjustable and stable fit

The ski pants 2117 HUMLA BLACK feature a removable suspender system.

The suspenders provide additional stability and help keep the pants in the right position during movement.

Main advantages

• Removable design: use with or without suspenders.

• Stable fit: less movement of the pants.

• Adjustability: choice according to personal preference.

• Comfort while skiing: additional support.

• Practicality: suitable for various ways of use.

When to use suspenders?

Suspenders are especially useful during intensive skiing, frequent squatting and movement, as they help prevent the pants from slipping.

If you prefer a more relaxed fit, you can remove them and use the pants with the adjustable waist only.

Adjustable waist – individual adaptation

2117 HUMLA BLACK have an adjustable waist strap that allows fit adjustment according to body shape and the number of layers worn underneath.

Main advantages

• Adjustable circumference: better fit.

• Stability: less unwanted movement.

• Comfort: adaptation to different body shapes.

• Practicality: suitable for use with functional underwear.

• Versatility: effective performance with or without suspenders.

The adjustable waist allows a more precise fit and helps maintain comfort during all-day use.

Snow gaiters – protection against snow ingress

The lower part of the pants has built-in snow gaiters that help prevent snow from getting into the ski boots.

Main advantages

• Protection from snow: reduces the possibility of snow ingress.

• Comfort: helps keep the lower part of the legs dry.

• Practicality: suitable for ski boots.

• Stable fit: additional protection around the boot.

• Versatility: useful in deep and churned snow.

Why are snow gaiters important?

During skiing, snow can get under the lower edge of the pants, especially during falls or skiing through deeper snow.

Snow gaiters create an additional protective layer around the ski boot and help reduce snow ingress.

Zippers on the lower part of the pants – easier putting on of ski boots

How to measure your body correctly?

1. Waist circumference

Use a measuring tape to measure the waist circumference at the point where you usually wear your trousers. Breathe calmly while measuring.

2. Hip circumference

Measure the widest part of the hips and buttocks. The measuring tape should run horizontally around the body.

3. Inseam length

Measure the distance from the crotch to the bottom of the ankle or to the desired trouser length.

4. Consider additional layers

When choosing ski trousers, also consider the thickness of the functional base layers you will wear underneath.

Tip for choosing your size

Ski trousers should allow free movement of the knees and hips without causing uncomfortable pressure at the waist.

Thanks to the adjustable waist and removable suspenders, the HUMLA model allows for additional fit adjustment.

Manufacturer's information: The model in the photo is 185 cm tall and wears size M.

This information can serve as a guide, but choose your final size primarily according to your own body measurements.

Recommended use and layering of clothing

2117 HUMLA BLACK are lightly lined ski trousers, so they offer comfortable use in various winter conditions.

For optimal body temperature regulation, we recommend appropriate layering.

First layer – functional base layer

Under ski pants, we recommend wearing high-quality functional underwear that effectively wicks moisture away.

Thermal pants made from synthetic functional fibers or merino wool are suitable.

Second layer – additional insulation as needed

In very low temperatures, you can use an additional thin insulating layer.

Since HUMLA pants already feature built-in ALTO Wool Padding insulation, an extra layer is not always necessary.

Third layer – HUMLA ski pants

The outer layer protects against wind, snow and moisture, and complements the thermal insulation.

Main benefits of proper layering

• More effective regulation of body temperature.

• Better moisture wicking.

• More comfort while skiing.

• Less risk of overheating.

• Adaptability to different temperatures.

• An effective combination of insulation and weather protection.
