TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
How has this jacket been designed to withstand bad weather?
As waterproofing isn’t limited to the fabric used, we also guarantee that the assembly of the parts doesn’t let water through.
For increased protection:
- Quick double tightening with elastic drawcord at the bottom of the garment.
- Velcro-adjustable sleeve cuffs covering the wrist.
- Gusset at the wrist to make it easier to wear gloves.
- Watertight zip
- Sealed and heat-sealed seams
How can this jacket adapt to your activities?
- Thanks to its ventilation zips, this jacket allows you to regulate heat during exercise.
- Large, height- and depth-adjustable hood. Semi-rigid visor with integrated mesh headband to provide a high level of protection and better support.
- Pre-formed ergonomic sleeves that adjust optimally to follow your movements.
What is the breathability rating of this jacket?
To find out whether a fabric is breathable, we test its evaporative resistance or RET (based on the JIS L 1099 B1 standard). The lower the fabric's resistance, the more water vapour generated by physical activity evaporates, and the higher the fabric's breathability.
It is considered that if:- RET < 9 = highly breathable fabric
- 9 < RET < 12 = breathable fabric.
The breathability qualities of this jacket:
- RET < 8 for the main fabric
- RET < 12 for the secondary fabric
How many pockets does this jacket have?
This jacket has two hand rest pockets, with a watertight YKK AquaGuard zip. Accessible even when wearing a bag on your back.
There is a mesh pocket for a mobile phone inside the right pocket to keep it safe and prevent it from falling out when you open your pocket.
What are the special features of the jacket’s central zip opening?
- Features a waterproof YKK AquaGuard zip along the entire length with an inside flap providing protection from the wind.
- Double slide lets you open the jacket from the bottom.
- Soft fabric flap at the top of the collar to protect the chin.
What is the waterproofing rating of the fabrics used?
This jacket has two waterproof components (norm JIS L 1092):
- The main fabric is highly waterproof. It is resistant to 20,000 mm of water (Schmerber rating) before washing
- The secondary fabric on the reinforced sections is also resistant to 20,000 mm of water (Schmerber rating) before washing.
How does this jacket provide optimal protection?
This hybrid jacket combines two fabrics:
- A durable and protective fabric (155 g/m2; 70 denier) on the areas to be protected from friction (shoulders, outside of the sleeves, bottom of the garment at the front and back)
- A light and breathable fabric (102 g/sqm; 20 denier) on the rest of the jacket.
This asymmetric jacket is made from a slightly longer back than the front, ensuring maximum protection in all your movements, when in action or bivouacking.
