Features
- Inside flap under the zipper that protects from the wind.
- Elastic cuffs
- Flap at the top of the collar to protect the chin.
Tightening with an elastic cord and toggle at the hem.
- Hood with elastic bias binding
Thermal insulation - Warmth
This padded jacket has been certified for a comfort temperature of -5°C during a standardized test in a thermal chamber.
The mannequin wears a synthetic long-sleeved t-shirt and a light fleece underneath. It works with a simulated 5 km/h wind.
In our heat comparison tool, this is equivalent to 2 stars.
Technical information on the filling
We use 100% polyester filling (70% recycled) weighing 125 g/m² in the body and 100 g/m² in the sleeves and hood.
The filling is made from silicone-coated spiral fibres that make it highly compressible and durable.
Despite its low thickness, the trapped air makes it highly insulated, and remains lightweight.
It retains its warmth even when wet.
Durable materials
This polyamide fabric that uses 20 denier thread can withstand 20,000 abrasion cycles.
Martindale test, 12947-2 standard
Outer: 100% polyamide fabric 39 g/m², 20 denier
Lining: 100% polyester fabric 35 g/m², mix of 15 to 20 denier threads
The material’s water repellency (not to be confused with waterproofing)
A fabric's water repellency is its ability to make water run off its surface without being absorbed.
This prevents the fabric from soaking up water and keeps it lightweight and warm.
Water repellency is achieved by treating the fabric’s exterior.
The garment should be retreated over its lifespan (recommended after each wash).
Products are available for this purpose in our stores
How to restore water repellency
Over time, after washing and wear and tear during use, the water repellent treatment becomes less effective.
This is how to re-activate your padded jacket’s water repellency.
Use the care product. Wash-in product for reactivating water repellency
What is a PFC-free water-repellent treatment?
Our water repellent treatment contains no PFCs (perfluorocarbons), i.e. PFC-Free.
PFCs are used to make a fabric water repellent, but they are very toxic for humans and the environment. By replacing the PFCs with other technologies that we are developing to enable the same level of performance, we are helping to reduce this environmental impact.
Do you know why the inner lining of your padded jacket is grey?
Because the fabric we use reduces CO2 emissions by 40%.
This fabric’s lining is innovative because it mixes a dope-dyed black yarn and an undyed yarn.
Compared to a conventional dyeing process, this process reduces by:
• 66% fine particle emissions (PM2.5) • 74% Eutrophication of fresh water
• 68% eutrophication of sea water
For more information on sustainable development:
On the black Trek 100 model, the outer fabric uses a clean dyeing process known as dope dyeing (the thread is dyed before the yarn is woven) reducing CO2 emissions by 36%.

Our products' environmental impact
The environmental impact of the product is calculated over its entire life cycle using different indicators. An ABCDE rating shows the environmental impact of a product. Put forward by ADEME, it takes into account production, transportation, usage, and waste generated at the end of a product’s life. Decathlon displays this information voluntarily to help you identify products with lower environmental impact.Learn more at http://sustainability.decathlon.com/
