The ideal spare jacket to keep you covered in light rain
Water resistance of the fabric
The waterproofing of a fabric by a coating or a membrane is measured in Schmerbers or mm H2O (pressure of a water column). The higher this number, the more waterproof the fabric.
This jacket is designed with a waterproof coating (JIS 1092 standard): this component resists 5,000mm H2O (Schmerbers) before washing (equivalent to the pressure exerted by a 5m column of water).
Fabric breathability
Our product's fabric is extremely breathable - 12 TER
The breathability of a component is measured by its "Thermal Evaporative Resistance". This is its capacity to let out water vapour produced by the body during activity. The lower the Thermal Evaporative Resistance (RET) coefficient, the more breathable the fabric.
RET < 9 = extremely breathable fabric.
RET < 12 = highly breathable fabric.
RET < 20 = breathable fabric.
RET > 20 = slightly or not breathable fabric.
Available in S to 4XL
Our priority? That our hiking clothes fit all body shapes and figures! So that everyone who wants to can enjoy hiking trails in complete comfort. That's why this jacket is available from S to 4XL.
How to maintain your jacket’s waterproof properties and durability
To maintain a durable water-repellent fabric, we recommend reactivating it regularly.
Do this every three washes (it is important to rinse abundantly) or after a dozen uses in the rain.
You can easily reactivate the water repellent property by warming the fabric:
- in your tumble dryer for 15 minutes (synthetic cycle),
- with a hairdryer from 20 cm away, passing over twice,
- or passing over with an iron twice, on the delicates setting, without steam
Choose your waterproof jacket according to your sports effort
During sports activity, the extent to which we perspire depends on the intensity or the duration of the physical effort If the breathability of the fabric is not adapted to your type of physical activity, the perspiration vapour condenses inside the jacket You feel damp this is not rain coming through but perspiration vapour condensing You therefore need to choose a rain jacket according to your type of physical activity. This jacket is designed for 2-hour hikes at no more than 5km/h
With its clever storage pocket, we designed this rain jacket for walking in the forest, on the coast or in the lowlands
