What does the RDS* certification mean?


This 85% down / 15% feather down jacket has a guaranteed fill power equal or above 660 CUIN (European standard).The fill power is a measure of the down's thermal insulation capacity and its potential to "trap" air. So, down with a higher fill power (high CUIN number) will occupy more space, trap more air and provide greater thermal insulation.

Down/feather fill power

The durability and fill power properties of down give this jacket 3 qualities for hiking:
- The air trapped in the down and feathers provides thermal insulation
- Ultra low weight: down is lighter than synthetic wadding while offering the same degree of warmth. This saves even more weight in your backpack
- Ultra-compressible

What are the benefits of a duck down and feather filling?

The quilted jacket’s material is water repellent. This means that drops of water roll off the fabric, preventing them from soaking into the down jacket as quickly. But the down jacket is not waterproof. So we recommend wearing a waterproof jacket over the down jacket in the event of prolonged exposure to rain.

In case of rain

Some tips: close all the zippers on your down jacket and put it in the washing machine (synthetic cycle at 30°C). 
To preserve the fill power and warmth, put 2 tennis balls in the machine
NB: set a gentle spin cycle, as a fast spin cycle creates clumps that are difficult to break up.

How to wash your feather down jacket

During washing, the down loses its loft. Tumble-drying is the best way to restore fill power. Put your down jacket in the dryer with two tennis balls. Run 2–3 drying cycles.
If you do not have a tumble dryer, you can completely dry your down jacket on a drying rack by turning it over and patting regularly.

Over time, due to washing and wear and tear, the water-repellent treatment becomes less effective. 
This is how you can re-activate your padded jacket’s water repellency!

The fabric for this jacket is water-repellent: water slides off its surface. This keeps the fabric from soaking up water so that the jacket stays lightweight and breathable. Water repellency is achieved by treating the fabric’s exterior. Our water-repellent coatings are now perfluorocarbon-free.

PFC-free water repellency

To maintain water repellency, we recommend regular reactivation. 
Reactivate water repellency after three washes (remember to rinse thoroughly) or after using a dozen times in the rain. 
You can easily reactivate the water repellency properties by warming the fabric: 
- in a dryer for 15 minutes (synthetics cycle) - with a hair dryer, moving back and forth from a distance of 20 cm (8”), twice
- with an iron on the delicate setting and with the steam function off

Long-lasting performance

Rain jacket fabric has a waterproof rating of 2,000 mm.We measure a fabric’s resistance to water pressure in terms of water column height in mm (ISO 811 standard). The higher the water pressure, the more waterproof the fabric. Waterproof material rated 2,000 mm can withstand the pressure exerted by a 2,000 mm column of water (roughly the equivalent of a two-hour shower).

Water resistance (fabric)

The fabric of this jacket is breathable: RET = 12.To find out whether a fabric is breathable, we test its total evaporative resistance (RET) based on the ISO 11092 standard. The lower the fabric’s resistance, the more perspiration can escape, and the higher the fabric’s breathability. 
- RET < 9 = extremely breathable 
- 9 < RET < 12 = very breathable 
- 12 < RET < 20 = breathable 
- RET > 20 = little or no breathability

Fabric breathability

This rain jacket was designed for a 2-hour hike at a maximum pace of 5 km/h (3 mph), with no ascent.How much you perspire depends on the intensity and duration of your physical activity.If the fabric’s breathability is not right for your activity, perspiration will condense inside the jacket.The jacket will feel damp inside.This dampness is not rain soaking through, but condensation caused by perspiration.You need to choose a rain jacket for your activity. 

Choose your waterproof jacket according to the intensity of your activity. 

Wear the NH 500 Raincut Rain Pants to protect your lower body, too. Then you’ll have complete, effective protection against wind and rain.
Plus, the rain pants are also eco-designed using bulk dope dyeing.

Thermal insulation.

Fill power is a measure of the down’s thermal insulation capacity and potential to trap air. It is expressed in cuin (cubic inches).
Down with higher fill power will take up more space, trap more air, and provide greater thermal insulation.
With an 85% down/15% feather filling, this jacket has a guaranteed fill power of 660 cuin or more (European standard).

Measuring the fill power of down and feather wadding

The durability and fill power properties of down give this jacket three qualities for hiking:
- The air trapped in the down and feathers provides thermal insulation.
- Ultra-low weight: down is lighter than synthetic wadding while offering the same degree of warmth. This saves even more weight in your backpack.
- Ultra-compressible.

The main stitching is heat-sealed to prevent feather loss.

Reducing the risk of feather loss

The quilted fabric is water-repellent. It allows water to slide off the fabric, keeping it dry while you get out of the rain. The shoulders and hood, which are more exposed to the rain, are waterproof. However, in the event of prolonged exposure to rain, wearing a waterproof jacket over the quilted jacket is recommended.

This down jacket can be worn all winter and will eventually need to be washed. 
  
In short: 
1. Machine wash with detergent specially formulated for down or technical garments at 30°C. Gentle spin cycle.

2. Tumble dry with 2 or 3 tennis balls and repeat 2 or 3 times until it is completely dry.

How to care for a down and feather jacket

Once you have cleaned your padded jacket, we recommend using a water-repellent reactivator spray to preserve the hydrophobic properties of the outer fabric. This renews the fabric’s water-repellent properties and optimizes its performance throughout the lifespan of your garment.

Waterproofing

Snags are common when hiking in a padded jacket. Simply mend it or apply an iron-on patch to prevent the tear from getting bigger and letting the synthetic fibres escape.

Choose your usual size.


The brushed fleece component is designed to trap air; this air acts as a natural insulator, keeping the body warm. 

How does the material insulate you from the cold?

Two types of tests measure warmth:
- a material test 
- tests using a thermal mannequin in a thermal chamber We reproduce the temperature, wind (5 km/h), and humidity conditions encountered in the mountains during a 5 km/h hike.
These tests help us validate our design choices before field testing. 
This fleece has a comfort temperature between 7°C and 10°C (without a jacket over top).

How is warmth measured?

We make our polyester from plastic bottles, reducing the use of oil-based resources while preserving the material’s quality and performance.The white model is made from 100% recycled polyester and the grey model from 25% recycled polyester.

Why choose recycled polyester?

Textile dyeing requires a lot of water and produces wastewater from the dye baths. We use a bulk dyeing process that involves adding the colour pigments when manufacturing the thread to reduce the environmental impact. This dyeing process is used for our white and black models.

Our commitment to reduce water consumption

The aging of our hiking fleeces is tested to guarantee durability. We guarantee:
- resistance to wear from backpacks and moving arms to delay the appearance of pilling
- seam strength
- resistance to washing 
- colourfastness after washing and exposure to UV light and perspiration.

Technical information

This polyamide canvas uses 20 denier threads (thread unit of measurement) and resists up to 20,000 abrasion cycles. Durability is calculated using the Martindale test, Standard 12 947-2. This test consists of rubbing the jacket’s material against another material to see how well the product resists wear. 
Exterior: 100% polyamide fabric 39 g/m², 20 denier
Lining: 100% polyamide fabric 35 g/m², a mix of 15 and 20 denier threads

Durable materials

A fabric’s water repellency refers to its ability to shed water from its surface before it gets absorbed.
This prevents the fabric from absorbing water and keeps it lightweight and warm. Water repellency is achieved by treating the fabric’s exterior. This treatment needs to be reapplied throughout the product’s lifetime (recommended after each wash). Water repellency-restoration products are available in our stores.

Water repellency (not to be confused with waterproofing)

Once you clean your padded jacket, we recommend a water-repellent reactivator spray to preserve the outer fabric’s hydrophobic properties. This renews the fabric’s water repellent properties and optimizes its performance throughout its lifespan. Look for this product in store and on our website using code 8554908

Water repellency restoration

Our water-repellent treatment contains no PFCs (perfluorocarbons).

PFCs make fabric water-repellent, but are toxic to humans and the environment. By replacing the PFCs with other technologies that we are currently developing to achieve the same level of performance, we help reduce this environmental impact.

What is a PFC-free water-repellent treatment?

The fabric we use reduces CO₂ emissions by 40%.
The lining is innovative; it weaves dope-dyed black yarn together with undyed yarn. Compared to a classic dyeing process, this method reduces:
•	fine particulate emissions (PM2.5) by 66%
•	Fresh water eutrophication by 74%
•	sea water eutrophication by 68%

Do you know why the lining of your padded jacket is grey?

Dyeing textiles uses lots of water, chemical products, and energy. However, we still enjoy wearing colour. To reduce our impact, we use the dope dyeing, a technique where colour pigments are added when the yarn being produced (not soaked in dye baths as usual). This reduces water consumption and wastewater from fabric dyeing operations.

We reduced the environmental impact by dyeing the threads before weaving them.

In general, it’s best not to wash a down jacket too often. Each wash lowers its thermal properties.

Valuable advice for improving your padded jacket’s durability!

Sometimes a padded jacket gets torn on the trails. Good news! It can be repaired! Simply mend it or apply an iron-on patch to prevent the tear from getting bigger and letting the synthetic fibres to escape.

Not sure about repairing it yourself? Don’t worry! Our in-store workshops offer a repair service for your padded jackets.

We also tested this product in static mode: the comfort temperature is 5°C in this case.

How warm is this padded jacket?

The fill power of down has 3 advantages for mountain hiking:

- Thermal insulation, because of the air trapped in the down and feathers.
Ultra-lightweight: down is lighter than synthetic fill and provides the same warmth. This saves even more weight in your backpack.
- Ultra-compressible.

The advantages of duck down and feather filling

Fill power is a measure of the down’s thermal insulation capacity and potential to trap air. It is expressed in cuin (cubic inches).
Down with higher fill power will take up more space, trap more air, and provide greater thermal insulation.With an 85% down and 15% feather filling, this jacket has a guaranteed fill power of 800 cuin or more (international standard).

Inflating power of down/feather filling

A fabric’s water repellency is its ability to make water run off its surface without being absorbed.
This prevents the fabric from absorbing water and keeps it lightweight and warm. The fabric in this down jacket is water-repellent, although we recommend you wear a waterproof jacket over top in the rain. The fabric is made water-repellent by treating its outer surface, but the treatment can deteriorate with use. 
We recommend restoring it after each wash.

This washable down jacket can be worn all winter. But the less you wash it, the longer its thermal insulation and water repellency will last.
  
In short: 
1. Machine wash at 30°C with detergent specially formulated for down or technical garments. Gentle spin cycle.

2. Tumble dry with 2 or 3 tennis balls and repeat 2 or 3 times until it is completely dry.

How to care for down jackets

Once you have cleaned your padded jacket, we recommend using a water-repellent reactivator spray to preserve the hydrophobic properties of the outer fabric. This renews the fabric’s water-repellent properties and optimizes its performance throughout its life cycle.

How do I reactivate the waterproofing properties?

Snags are common when hiking in a padded jacket. Simply mend it or apply an iron-on patch to prevent the tear from getting bigger and letting the synthetic fibres escape.
