Martindale test, Standard 12947-2

Outer: 100% polyamide fabric 1.4 oz/sqm, 20 denier

Technical information on the padding

We use 100% polyester fill (25% recycled).

The fill is made from silicon-coated spiral fibers that make it highly compressible and highly durable.
Despite its low thickness, it has high insulation properties thanks to the air trapped inside, and remains lightweight.

It remains warm even when wet.

Do you know why the inner lining of your down jacket is gray?

Because the fabric we use reduces CO2 emissions by 40%.
The fabric used is innovative because it mixes a self-dyed black thread and an undyed thread.
Compared to a classic dyeing process, this process reduces by:
• 66% fine particle emissions (PM2.5)
• 74% Eutrophication of fresh water
• 68% eutrophication of sea water

Additional sustainable development information

On the Trek 100 black model, the outer fabric uses a clean process known as dope dyeing (the thread is dyed before the yarn is woven) reducing CO2 emissions by 36%.

Water-repellent property of the component (not to be confused with the waterproofing)

The water-repellent property of a fabric is its capacity to make water run off its surface without absorbing it.
This prevents the fabric from soaking up water and keeps it lightweight and breathable. The fabric is made water-repellent by treating its outer surface; however, this property may deteriorate with use.
