nature hikers looking for extra protection against rain and wind.

Impermeability of the garment

The garment passed a shower test under 60 L/m²/hour of water for 1 hour. This test replicates the average conditions of a rain shower.
The fabric of this jacket is water-repellent, i.e. water runs off its surface without getting absorbed. As a result, the fabric does not soak up the water and remains lightweight and breathable. A fabric becomes water-repellent by applying a treatment to its outer surface.
What’s more, the main seams that are most exposed to the rain are taped.

How to maintain the waterproofness of your jacket long-term

In order to maintain good waterproofing over time, the fabric’s water-repellent properties must be regularly reactivated. We recommend doing this every 3 washes or after a dozen uses in the rain. The waterproof property is easily reactivated by warming the fabric: in a tumble dryer or with a hairdryer for a relatively short period. If you are washing it, it must be thoroughly rinsed.

Waterproof rating expressed in mm or Schmerber

We measure the resistance of a fabric to water pressure expressed in mm of water column (test based on Standard ISO 811). The higher the water pressure, the more waterproof the fabric. A component with a 2000 mm waterproof rating can therefore withstand the pressure of a 2000 mm column of water.

Component breathability

To find out whether a fabric is breathable, we test its total evaporative resistance (RET) based on the ISO 11092 standard. The lower the fabric’s resistance, the more water vapor generated by physical activity can escape, and the higher the fabric’s breathability.
RET < 9 = extremely breathable fabric
9 < RET < 12 = very breathable fabric
12 < RET < 20 = breathable fabric
RET > 20 = little or no breathability

How to choose your waterproof jacket according to your sports discipline and the intensity of your physical activity

During sports, the extent to which we perspire depends on the intensity or duration of the physical activity. If the breathability of the fabric is not adapted to your type of physical activity, the perspiration vapor condenses inside the jacket. You feel damp inside: this is condensing perspiration vapor rather than rain getting inside. 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 3 mph.

Making dyes more eco-friendly

Our teams work to find innovative processes that reduce water consumption or water pollution during the production process.
The dope dye (bulk dying) process saves up to 60% of water and significantly reduces the amount of CO2 emitted. This also reduces color fading over time.
We started using this process on this jacket in 2019 on navy colors while the efforts to master this technique on other colors are still continuing: the implantations are planned during the season

Additional recommended products

Raincut overpants for protecting the lower body as well, so that you can have a complete outfit that offers highly effective protection against wind and showers. And, first and foremost: from 2019, we are also starting to use this more eco-friendly dyeing process on the overpants!
