How does the product warranty work?

Our snowboard jackets are guaranteed for 5 years. We offer repairs if your jacket is damaged. Contact us on our website to learn more on how to get your product repaired.

We opt for components and assembly processes that make our ski and snowboard jackets as durable as possible.

How can I be sure that my jacket is strong and durable?

We are aware of our sport’s impact on the environment and are committed to reducing the impact of our products as much as possible to protect our natural playground. This jacket was developed with the following features:

- 90% recycled wadding
- Fluoride-free main material
- Lining with dope-dyed yarn

Our actions toward a more environmentally friendly design

Dyeing textiles uses lots of water, chemical products, and energy. But we love colour. To reduce this impact, we use the dope dyed technique where powder colour pigments are added when the yarn is produced (and not by soaking it in dye baths, as is usually the case). This reduces consumption and the discharge of wastewater from colouring our fabrics.

What is dope dyeing?

Despite our efforts, it’s not always easy to reduce our impact as much as we would like. For this product, we are striving to:

- convert the main component into a recycled component
- use dope dyeing for all components
- find out how to make a product waterproof with a recycled polyurethane coating
- make the coating separable (or have the same chemical composition) so the product can be recycled

What we’re not doing so well when it comes to our environmental impact

The product’s environmental impact is calculated across its entire life using a range of 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.

Our products’ environmental impact

The product’s components and assembly were designed to keep the water out and reduce wind chill. The waterproof rating is measured by placing the product in a special shower that replicates real-life conditions. Finally, we spent a few days snowboarding, in all conditions, to validate the product’s waterproofing.

How can I be sure my jacket will protect me in bad weather?

We improved the jacket’s waterproofing with taped seams, in addition to the waterproof fabric. These heat-bonded waterproof strips are placed on the seams inside the clothing to make it perfectly watertight. These waterproof seams are used in the areas the most exposed to snow (hood and shoulders).

Water often gets in through the seams. Does my jacket have taped seams?

The water-repellent feature makes water run off the fabric without seeping in because of a treatment applied to its outer surface. The fabric does not soak up water and stays light and warm. This treatment must be renewed during the life of the product, after 2 or 3 washes on average. All the waterproof jackets that we design for snowboarders are water-repellent.

What is the water-repellent feature of my jacket for?

A breathable coating in the form of a paste or liquid is applied to the fabric, creating a protective film. The breathable coating is a waterproof barrier that lets perspiration pass through.

Coated jacket: what are the advantages of the coating?

To keep you warm, we use wadding insulation. Wadding is a synthetic component made from polyester that stores air depending on the length of the fibres. Wadding can be standard, hi-tech, or silicone-coated, and each type has different properties (warmth, low weight, elasticity, etc.).

How will my jacket keep me warm?

To make sure you stay warm and dry, we recommend using the 3-layer technique: 
- Layer 1 or base layer, to stay dry. 
- Layer 2 or insulating layer, to keep the heat in.
- Layer 3 to protect against the elements.

How should I dress to avoid getting cold in the mountains?

To optimize your jacket’s performance and durability, we advise the following: 
*Machine wash at 30°C on a synthetics cycle. 
*Turn the product inside-out.
*Use a small amount of detergent. Do not use fabric softener.
*Do not use a spin cycle. 
*Hang to dry.
Do not dry clean. Do not place on a heater or radiator.
You can restore the water resistance of the outer fabric with a fabric waterproofing spray. Read the care label.

How do I wash my jacket?

This jacket was designed with a membrane that ensures a waterproof rating of 10,000 mm. After each wash, the membrane becomes less efficient, which is why the product was also tested to guarantee optimal waterproofing even after 5 washes. The value printed inside the jacket is the waterproof rating after 5 washes.

Why is the waterproofing value online different from the one in the jacket?

Capacity

Elastic, symmetrical cover that can be easily slipped over the board.

Easy opening/closing

 When using it for the first time, pull on the zigzag seam at the ends to stretch it out.

Ease of use

Can be carried under the arm, just like a snowboard.

Easy transport

Reinforcement in the lower part protects the nose and tail of the snowboard.

This cover does not protect the edges in the event of major impact.

Wipe the edges properly before storing your board, otherwise they will rust.

Corrosion resistance

This bag was designed to transport your snowboard on short regular trips, protect your car seats, and store your snowboard in summer.

Carrying your snowboard during daily use can be a bit risky:
- Scratching the base or the edges in the parking lot
- Damaging the seats of your car with the edges
This cover was designed to avoid these risks.
We wanted to create a cover that was quick to put on, so a stretch cover solution was chosen. When using it, we discovered another benefit: you feel like you are pampering your board.

Why this bag?

For a short trip, just remove the snow.
Once you are home, take time to wipe the edges properly to prevent rust. The material around the edges on the nose and tail isn’t breathable, but it is durable so your cover will last longer.

Watch out for rust

It has to be snapped to stretch it out. 
This may seem worrying because when you hear it snap, it may sound like you’re tearing it. But that’s not the case at all: It isn’t the zigzag seam breaking; it’s a thread required for production that is no longer needed. So there’s no need to worry!

The cover does not protect from impacts i you drop your board on the ground. The travel bag for the grey Comfort 500 Snowboard (8399495) fulfills this role.

Because UV rays are harmful to eyes, all our goggles are certified 100% Anti-UV in accordance with the EN 174 Standard. Masks are the best protective solution as they perfectly enclose the eyes preventing any direct or reflected UV light from entering.

UV Protection

S3 SUN's screen means a dark lens that protects you from the intense light of the sun. We have selected a brown tint that offers good visibility in shaded areas or in the late afternoon when the sun is less bright.
Lenses are not scratch-resistant.

S3 SUN screen

Optimal anti-fogging combines a treated dual lens and an air vent on the frame that ventilates the inside of the ski goggles.
For good ventilation, do not block air vents with a neck warmer, for example.
Do not rub inner surface of lens. Instead, dab it carefully to preserve the anti-fogging treatment for as long as possible.

Optimal anti-fogging

Goggle design with a dual-ventilated lens to limit fogging. Indeed, the air that is trapped between the 2 lenses creates a layer of thermal insulation. This layer reduces the thermal shock between the inside and the outside of the goggles, decreasing fogging on the lens. The inner lens also has an anti-fogging treatment and is equipped with air vents that provide a good airflow.

Ventilated dual lens

The spherical shape limits optical distortion.
The outer screen is made from injected polycarbonate, very resistant to impact while the inner lens is acetate.

Protect the goggles, and the lens in particular, from scratches before and after use. This case also cleans the lenses and its material prevents scratches.

Microfibre case

A coloured coating on the outer side of the ski goggles lens (named coloured Flash) reduces the percentage of light that reaches the eye, reducing glare and improving clarity in sunny conditions.
Warning, the screens are not scratch resistant.

Coloured Flash Lens

The EN 174 standard is a European standard applied to goggles used for eye protection when downhill skiing or during similar activities, such as snowboarding. The ANSI American standard is more stringent than the European standard for shock and impact resistance.
These skiing goggles pass both these standards.

CE - EN 174 Standard

Moisture causes fogging. To prevent this, the foam should not get damp, for example by placing the goggles on a wet helmet or a hat. Falling face down in the snow can also cause your goggles to fog up. Always dry your ski goggles properly overnight to get rid of all the moisture so you can hit the slopes the next day with bone-dry goggles.

Preventing condensation

Choose your mask size according to your head size. 
Up to 55 cm, choose size S, from 56  choose size L.
