Want to move quickly and without restriction in the mountains? Weighing just 6.3 oz, you can travel light, sure of being well protected in light to moderate rain and wind.
At the foot of Mont Blanc, our team of enthusiasts designed this waterproof jacket for those who love FAST HIKING.
Sizing and fit information
Slim fit. Interior volume means you can wear this jacket in combination with a light, thin 2nd layer garment, like a fleece or light down jacket.
Hood
Stiff visor for maximum face protection.
Pockets
1 breast pocket closed with a waterproof zipper in which you can fold up the jacket.
Main components
Blue part – waterproof, breathable 2.5-layer membrane component.
White part – ultra-water-repellent windproof component. Which improves the lightness, compressibility and breathability of the jacket. All seams are sealed to enhance overall waterproofing
Component breathability
Aside from the breathability of the fabrics used, Quechua develops technical solutions (zippers, air holes, mesh) to improve overall ventilation. These ventilation systems allow both temperature regulation inside the garment and help wick away perspiration generated by the body during exercise.
Component with coating or a membrane
Like a layer of “paint” applied on the underside of the fabric to make it waterproof while remaining breathable. It is often less costly than a membrane and requires a lining for protection. The membrane is like a very fine plastic film (polyurethane) making the component waterproof while remaining breathable. It has the advantage of being more supple, lightweight, durable and often more breathable than the coating. Jacket with a membrane.
Component 3 layers, 2 layers or 2.5 layers
3 layers: the membrane is bonded to an inner and outer layer of the component. This construction helps the membrane last longer and boosts the component’s performance. 2 layers: the membrane is only bonded to the outer fabric; the inner protective lining is free. This construction costs less but is generally more cumbersome. 2.5 layers: the membrane has inner protection with a kind of varnish coating rather than an actual layer to make it as lightweight as possible.
Component water-resistance
A fabric is water-repellent when it allows water to slide over its surface without seeping in. This prevents the fabric from swelling and keeps it lightweight, breathable and warm. A fabric becomes water-repellent by applying a treatment to its outer surface. This treatment must be renewed throughout the garment’s lifetime (with every 3 washes). All Quechua waterproof jackets have received a water-repellent treatment.
A score for comparing products’ environmental impact
The product’s environmental impact is calculated over its entire lifecycle using different indicators.
A score ranging from A to E is attributed so that you can easily identify the products with a better environmental performance compared to products of the same type (T-shirts, pants, backpacks,…). Decathlon totally backs the environmental labeling approach.
