Main Material

The boots’ thermal insulation when stationary (static -11°C) and when walking (dynamic -20°C) is based on field and lab tests conducted with users. This gives you an accurate measure of the temperature at which these boots protect you. The comfort temperature ratings for your boots are displayed. We take into account that people perceive the cold differently.

Are my boots warm enough for winter hikes?

Your boots have a membrane to guarantee waterproofing and breathability. A membrane is a very fine component (5 to 25 micrometres) affixed to the inside of a fabric that prevents water from entering but allows moisture to escape.

How do my boots protect me from outdoor conditions?

Thermal comfort is a balance between warmth and breathability. Too much heat or not enough breathability lets moisture accumulate and cold set in. This membrane is designed with your activities in mind, preventing water infiltration and letting moisture escape.

Breathable boots for optimal thermal comfort.

We made sure that your boots are waterproof by conducting laboratory tests that simulate walking with the boots half-submerged in water. We also conducted field tests to measure wear and aging. We tested 3 levels of waterproofing: 2,000 flexes (approx. 4-km hike), 4,000 flexes (approx. 8-km hike), and 8,000 flexes (approx. 16-km hike). This boot has been tested for up to 2,000 flexes, which is equivalent to a 4-km hike.

Are my boots 100% waterproof?

A boot’s traction depends on the number and shape of treads. The grip depends on the sole materials and the tread pattern, like car tires. Traction optimizes propulsion, prevents slipping when going uphill, and stabilizes the boot. 
Grip prevents the boots from slipping and skidding on smooth ground or in demanding conditions (rain, snow, and ice).

What is the difference between traction and grip?

Boots with Snow Contact soles provide maximum grip comfort for hiking and traction on snow. The strategical spacing and height of the lugs (3 mm) offer optimal grip when hiking on snow. The lugs are designed to grip hard snow and evacuate excess water to avoid slipping.

Which type of grip and traction does this boot provide?

The material and tread of Snow Contact soles are specifically designed for optimal grip and traction. Snow Contact soles are more effective on snow than traditional soles. When walking on ice, adding anti-slip grips to your boots is the only way to ensure optimum safety.

What are the advantages of Snow Contact technology?

This product was lab-tested by our engineers to ensure your total satisfaction. We tested the following elements: tear resistance of eyelets and straps, bonding, toxicology, UV resistance, abrasion resistance of outsole and upper components, and accelerated aging.

Will my boots withstand regular use in the long term?

Follow these guidelines for winter activities: Warmth: wear warm socks (ideally with a good percentage of wool).
Breathability: choose socks based on the intensity of the hike and make sure they’re breathable, to minimize moisture accumulation.
Boot height: the height of the sock should correspond to the height of the boot—for more protection, choose higher socks.

The right footwear for hiking in snow

Water repellency is a fabric’s capacity to make water run off its surface without being absorbed. It prevents the fabric from soaking up water, keeping it lightweight, warm, and breathable. Water repellency is achieved by treating the fabric’s exterior. This treatment needs to be reapplied throughout the product’s lifetime. Products for this purpose (spray and liquid) are available in our stores.

Kinesiology strap designed for preventing injury, supporting joints, and improving muscle performance during sports

Support Elastic

Kinesiology tape is an adhesive, elastic tape that can be stuck to the body in various ways. 

It helps muscles function better, supports joints, reduces pain, and activates the lymphatic system for improved oedema drainage.

Check out our fitting tips on our YouTube channel


Why use a kinesiology tape?

The tape comes in 4 different colours: blue, black, pink, and beige. They are all as effective. The only difference is the colour!

Is there a difference between each tape colour?

These kinesiology tapes were tested by our partner physiotherapists during different activities (basketball, football, handball, tennis, badminton, running, trail running, gymnastics, judo, cross-training, weight training).

Approved by physiotherapists.

Type of Injury

Support Type

Wearing this elbow support may be recommended if you suffer from epicondylitis (tennis elbow) or medial epicondylitis (golfer's elbow) to help you get back into sport (basketball, soccer, handball, tennis, badminton, running, trail running, gymnastics, judo). It is easy to put on and tighten, with a compression knit and airy fabric to keep you comfortable.

Why wear this elbow support?

These two types of tendinitis occur when the tendons in the elbow become inflamed. For tennis elbow it is the tendon on top of the arm and for golfer's elbow it is the one underneath. People doing any sport can be affected (basketball, handball, rugby) but tendinitis is most common among people doing racket sports and golf, generally because they are training heavily, and the injury becomes aggravated by repeated impacts with the ball.

What is epicondylitis (tennis elbow) and medial epicondylitis (golfer's elbow)?

Measure your arm circumference, 5 cm below the inside of the elbow. Then match the measurement taken with the following size chart:
Size 1: 21.5 - 23,5 cm
Size 2: 23.5 - 26 cm
Size 3: 26 - 28 cm
Size 4: 28 - 30 cm

The Strong 500 ankle support is designed to help you get back to playing after suffering a minor to moderate ankle sprain.

Wearing this ankle support may be advised if you suffered ligament damage or are worried. You can wear this support to get back into your sport (basketball, soccer, handball, tennis, badminton, running, gymnastics, judo) more easily after a light to moderate sprain. It slips on easily with the opening at the back. You'll find the ventilated fabric and ankle-shape design very comfortable.

Why wear this ankle support?

A sprain happens when you stretch or tear ligaments in your ankle. Losing your balance on slippery terrain, making a sudden move, or manoeuvring during active play are common causes of sprains. It's estimated that sprained ankles are the most common sports injury, occurring at least 6000 times per day!

What is a sprain?

Measure the circumference of your ankle, at 5 cm above the ankle bones. Then take that measurement and find your size on the following chart:
Size 1: 20 - 22 cm
Size 2: 22 - 23.5 cm
Size 3: 23.5 - 25 cm
Size 4: 25 - 26.5 cm

Choosing your ankle support size

Before getting back into sports after a sprain, make sure you do physio exercises so your ankles can get back to their old selves as much as possible. After suffering a sprain, you have a higher risk of reinjury; hence the need to protect your ankles.

Why protect your ankles?

The Tarmak design team is based in Northern France. It constantly seeks to improve its products to best meet players' needs. All our models are tested in real-life situations for several weeks by demanding players. We then use your feedback to update them.

Freedom of movement

This Soft 500 ankle support was designed to prevent injuries and osteoarthritis by supporting players' ankles with uniform joint compression.

The Soft 500 ankle support can be used as a preventative measure by applying the compression that you need to support your joint and stimulate proprioception when playing sports (basketball, soccer, handball, tennis, badminton, running, trail running, gymnastics, judo). This product can also be used in the event of osteoarthritis in your ankle.

Proprioception is the ability to know where the different parts of your body are in space. The better your proprioception, the better your balance and the more controlled your movements. It also helps prevent the risk of injury.

What is proprioception?

Measure your ankle girth at 5 cm above the ankle joints. Then match the measurement taken with the following size chart:
Size 1: 20 - 22 cm
Size 2: 22 - 23.5 cm
Size 3: 23.5 - 25 cm
Size 4: 25 - 26.5 cm

Flysheet with 2 side panels that can spread out and hook onto the side ropes (open from the inside). Air can circulate in the bedroom. The entire rear sleeping area fly can also be lifted from the inside by pulling on a rope. 2 spaces between the flysheet and the ground on each side in the middle of the bedroom to allow air renewal and limit the natural occurrence of condensation as much as possible. Fresh concept reduces solar heat.

Ventilation

All Quechua tents are tested in the laboratory (whole tent under 200 L/m²/hr for 4 hours), as well as in field tests.
 (2000 mm PU-coated polyester flysheet, 120 g/m² polyethylene groundsheet, all seams sealed with thermo-bonded tape). The presence of a breathable polyester bedroom under the flysheet helps avoid contact with drops of condensation that can be deposited on the inside of the flysheet.

Waterproofing

We test all our tents in a wind tunnel with a rotating table to expose each side of the tent to the wind. A properly-assembled tent with all the guy ropes deployed around the tent must remain habitable with a wind speed measured at 50 km/h near the ground (Force 6).

Wind resistance

As designers and users who love our natural playground, we care about the durability of our products, which is why all our tents are designed to be repairable.

Spare parts and repairs of poles are available at the workshop of your Decathlon store or on our website at the following address:

Airy knit that wicks away perspiration to keep your shoulder dry.

This shoulder support was designed to support and stabilize your shoulder as you get back into sports.

The Mid 500 shoulder strap supports your joint. It compresses your shoulder while the elastic strap lets you adjust the level of support. This means that your joint is held in place effectively, so you can keep on playing (basketball, soccer, handball, tennis, badminton, running, trail running, gymnastics, judo) and moving around freely.

Why wear this shoulder support?

The shoulder joint is used heavily during sports, particularly those that involve throwing (basketball, handball, volleyball, athletics, etc.) and strength (cross-training, weight training). Injuries like tendinitis and sprains can weaken your joints.
