Description

Stay dry during your walks out in nature! This waterproof jacket protects you effectively from light rain, so you can go out exploring with total peace of mind.

How is this jacket waterproof?

Our jacket is protected by a waterproof coating that can withstand 5,000 mm H2O (Schmerbers). What does this actually mean? It’s as if it can withstand a 5-metre column of water! This guarantees you an excellent level of protection, even under light rain for around an hour.

What is a breathable fabric?

A fabric that wicks away your sweat towards the outside during periods of physical exertion. This capacity is measured on the RET rating scale: the lower the score, the better. Your jacket has a RET rating of 12, which is a “breathable” level. The result? You stay dry, inside and out!

How to maintain your jacket’s waterproof properties and durability

To maintain a durable water-repellent fabric, we recommend reactivating it regularly. Do this every three washes (it is important to rinse abundantly) or after a dozen uses in the rain. You can easily reactivate the water repellent property by warming the fabric: - with your tumble dryer for 15 minutes (synthetic programme); - with a hair dryer at a distance of 20 cm, going back and forth twice; - or twice over with an iron on a delicate setting without the steam function.

A jacket chosen to suit your level of exertion

This jacket is ideal for hiking with total peace of mind: 2 hrs maximum, at a moderate pace (5 km/hr), on flat terrain. Why this level of accuracy? The more you sweat, the more the fabric needs to be able to breathe! Otherwise, your sweat stays trapped inside your clothing, making you wet.

How can I maintain the waterproofing?

To keep your jacket waterproof for a long time, reactivate the protective layer every 3 washes, or after 10 uses in the rain. It’s easy to do: 15 minutes in a tumble drier (on a synthetic cycle), or a blast with a hair dryer held 20 cm away. Your jacket gets its efficiency back!

How do you reactivate its water-repellency?

To keep your jacket waterproof in the rain, reactivate the protective layer every 3 washes (ensuring you rinse thoroughly), or after 10 uses in the rain. It’s easy to do: 15 minutes in a tumble drier, a blast with a hair dryer held 20 cm away, or an iron on a low setting without steam.
