How warm is this padded jacket?
When worn as a 3rd layer, this padded jacket has a temperature rating of -5°C that was certified 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.
We also tested this model under "static" conditions; its temperature rating is +5°C in this case.
Want to know more about the filling?
We use 100% polyester filling (70% recycled).
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.
Do you know why the inner lining of your padded jacket is grey?
Because the fabric we use reduces CO2 emissions by 40%.
The fabric used is innovative because it mixes a self-dyed black thread and an undyed thread.
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 and blue Trek 100 models, 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%.

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 is water repellent when water slides over its surface without being absorbed. This prevents the fabric from soaking up water and keeps it lightweight and warm. The fabric is made water-repellent by treating its outer surface, however this property may deteriorate with use.
We recommend restoring it after each wash.
PFC-free treatment for water repellency
On the Trek 100 padded jacket, the water repellent treatment is PFC (perfluorocarbons)-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.

We recommend that you use the care product to treat and restore water repellency

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/
