W's RollerCoaster Pants

We set out to change the way it feels to wear a shell layer. To achieve full freedom of movement, we had to question the foundations of garment construction. Instead of traditional flatbed pattern construction, the Rollercoaster Pants are draped directly on a body in active positions mimicking those of mountaineering and freeride skiing. We call the concept Made to move.

Rollercoaster Pants are fully featured for skiing and mountaineering, but still doesn’t overdo it with unnecessary pockets and technology. Instead, it’s that garment construction that makes it stand out from the masses. The high bib pant are made in a light, stretchy and silent shell fabric called Loop Hardshell™ that enhances the feeling of being fully unrestricted. Go ski touring in the morning and finish with a couple of laps in the fun park in the afternoon. Rollercoaster Pants will keep you dry and comfortable through it all.

All the seams are taped for water protection and if you get too hot, just open up the ¾ length vent zippers on both legs. Two harness compatible thigh pockets and one internal pocket will keep you belongings safe all day. The light material is reinforced at the leg endings with Shoeller® patches to deal with wear from boots or ski steel edges.

Rollercoaster pants are also pushing boundaries in terms of sustainability. They are made from 70% recycled polyester, are fully recyclable, Bluesign® certified and free from any fluorocarbons. When they are completely worn out, please bring them back to Houdini for recycling.

Membrane: Atmos™

Atmos™ Membrane is a hydrophilic membrane, not micro porous, and at the molecular-level moisture moves through the fabrics. The more moisture that is in circulation the greater the ability of the membrane to move moisture away from your body. With Atmos we are sure we have a membrane that delivers Houdini standards when it comes to high performance in an environmentally sustainable way, which no other membrane at the market can live up to. Atmos™ membrane is made from recyclable polyester.

Synthetic materials

When washing clothes made of synthetic fabrics, the use of a washing bag becomes even more important: It prevents microplastics from entering into rivers and oceans.

• Air clothes instead of washing to save water, energy and to make the garments last longer.
• Use a washing bag to protect your garments and to prevent fibers from leaking. When cleaning the bag and filter in the machine, make sure to wipe it clean and throw the lint in your trash can. Never rinse it in water since we don’t want the fibers to end up in lakes or oceans.
• Machine wash, max 40 °C/104 °F.
• Use mild environmentally certified detergents and make sure to use the right dose.
• Avoid fabric softener. Besides being harmful for our environment, they have a negative impact on the garment performance, mainly moisture transportation and breathability.
• Tumble dry on low heat.
• Iron on low heat.

Bluesign

This product is Bluesign® certified, meaning that the production is vetted by a third party to eliminate any harmful chemicals or substances right from the beginning of the production process. This benefits both people, animals and our entire planet.

Circular

This product is fully circular, meaning that it's made either from recycled and recyclable or renewable and biodegradable fibers. Most products in today's society are made in a linear lifecycle, where earth's resources are extracted, used and then discarded. This is not working in the long run and comes at a great environmental impact. Instead, we want to close the loop and reuse the material we already have. But we need your help. When your Houdini garments are completely worn out, please return them to us through the recycling units we have in all our own stores and at many retailers.

Recycled

At least 50% of the fibers in this garment come from recycled sources, either recycled clothes or other sources like PET bottles. We mainly use recycled polyester, which has many benefits. It reduces both CO2 emissions and water use compared to virgin polyester. How much depends on the type of recycling. One of our suppliers show 32% less CO2 emissions and 94% less water use for mechanically recycled polyester. In addition to the impact in production, the major shift is using "waste" as raw material instead of crude oil.

Recyclable

The fabric in this garment is fully recyclable. Instead of becoming waste, the raw material can be used for new products. Our goal is that by 2030, we will take no raw material to our products from the earth's crust. Circular products, made from reycled and recyclable materials are a real game changer, but we need your help for the system to work. When your Houdini garments are completely worn out, please return them to us. We have recycle units in all of our own stores and at many retailers.
