Thermal comfort and Windproof
Wind considerably increases the effect of the cold! With an outside temperature of 32ยฐF and 12mph winds, it will feel like the temperature is 14ยฐF. “Windproof” components help eliminate the discomfort linked to this “freezing effect”. They are very effective at reducing heat loss by creating a barrier against the wind.
Water repellent component (different from waterproof)
A fabric is water repellent when it allows water slide over its surface without seeping in. This prevents the fabric from swelling, and keeps it lightweight, breathable and warm. The water repellent property is achieved by treating the fabric’s exterior. This treatment must be renewed throughout the garment’s lifetime (recommended after every three washes).
Component breathability
To find out whether a fabric is breathable, we test its RET or total evaporative resistance (based on the ISO 11092 standard). The lower the fabric’s resistance, the more water vapor generated by physical activity evaporates, and the higher the fabric’s breathability. For example: RET < 9 = extremely breathable fabric / 920 = little or no breathability.
Breathability
In addition to breathable fabrics, Quechua develops technical solutions (zippers, ventilation, mesh, etc.) to improve the overall ventilation of its trekking jackets and overpants (Forclaz, Bionnassay and Helium lines).
These ventilation systems allow you to regulate the temperature inside the garment and also to facilitate the transfer of perspiration generated by the body during physical effort.
Product Testing
Our design team is based at the foot of Mont-Blanc, in Haute-Savoie (France). All year round, we create and develop products that are beautiful, simple and technologically advanced. These are then ruthlessly tested in the field, as we remain convinced that only through rigorous testing under real world conditions, like the ones you will be using them in, can we continue to provide you with better products than ever.
