Additional product recommendations

EVA foam is not very resistant to tearing. We increased the thickness compared to the previous version and added reinforcements in high-pressure areas.

Good to know

Technologies: This garment was subjected to a shower test using 60 litres of water/sqm/hour for 2 hours. This test reproduces average rain shower conditions in the mountains.

This merino wool headband provides extra warmth for your outdoor adventures. Wool thread protected by polyamide for greater durability.

Packaging

Tightening Type

The merino wool headband is reinforced for greater durability. This is thanks to a new yarn structure. A polyamide thread forms a fine sheath that protects the merino wool fibres against friction and tears.
The fabric weight is 155 g/m².

Why is the MT 500 headband more durable?

We use wool from merino sheep bred on farms in South Africa that do not practise mulesing. 
We decided to build a partnership with a group of breeders (Konsortium Merino) to ensure that the sheep whose wool we use for our products live and are shorn in the best conditions.
This means we have full traceability, allowing us to guarantee the wool’s origin.  

Where does the Merino wool used for the MT500 headband come from?

anti-uv

UV Protection Factor

UV protection standards for hats are very specific: The fabric must be anti-UV (UPF index greater than 50), but this isn’t enough to claim that the finished product is anti-UV. The hat must also have a wide brim and flap that fully protects the face and the back of the neck. 
The MT 500 Hat meets these requirements, so you can go hiking with complete peace of mind:  you’re perfectly protected!

What criteria must a hat meet to qualify as anti-UV?

Polyamide offers excellent abrasion and tear resistance. Micro-organisms and mould don’t like the synthetic fibre!

How is polyamide more resistant?

The product is machine washed 3 times, then line dried. Next, we immerse it in water and measure how long it takes to get back to its pre-wash weight.
This hat scored an impressive 5 out of 5 stars, getting back to its pre-washed weight in less than 80 minutes.

How do you measure a fabric’s quick-dry capacity?

The pre-shaped foam structure provides additional comfort.

Fitting comfort

The polyurethane foam helps to reduce shock and vibrations.

Cushioning

The foam and perforations allow for good moisture absorption.

Fastener Type

If you’re carrying electronic devices or important documents, we recommend doubling the protection by using a waterproof pouch (IPX8) or a second, smaller dry bag that fits inside your bag.

Ensure all bags are properly closed and check water resistance with paper towel before hitting the water.
Do not swim with the bag neither immerse it underwater.

Precautions for electronic devices

To ensure good water resistance: 
1/ Press the two parts of the opening against one another.
 The pictograms showing the instructions for folding in front of you:
2/ Make four folds towards the front until the bag’s weld line is concealed. 
3/ Fasten the two buckles at the top to secure the strap over the eyelets.

Leave some air in the bag. It is more waterproof when inflated and floats for easy retrieval if dropped in the water.

A fleece that guarantees thermal comfort between 7°C and 10°C. Ideal for hiking in cool weather, you can take it anywhere. 

Customization

Zipper Type

The secret of a warm fleece lies in its ability to trap air and use its naturally insulating character to form a thermal shield. This keeps your body warm. Tested to be comfortable in temperatures of 7°C to 10°C, this fleece is your trusty companion against the cold.

A fleece that offers insulation from the cold?

Sweating is almost inevitable during a hike, even when it’s cool out. That’s why this fleece is designed with a breathable fabric. So even during intense activity, it wicks away moisture from the body and keeps you dry and comfortable throughout your adventure.

A breathable fleece

We know that the weight of your bag is important when hiking. That’s why at just 300 g (10.6 oz) in size L, this sweater disappears easily into your bag when you’re not wearing it.

A lightweight, practical fleece

Easy to look after, this fleece is machine washable. Just remember not to exceed 30°C and limit your spin cycle to 1,000 rpm. Make sure you turn it inside out before washing. 
Avoid tumble drying to maintain the fabric’s quality.

All our gloves are lab-tested on a thermal hand. The temperature ratings (recommended and limit) come from a study with a test panel of 23 hikers exposed to temperatures ranging from 5°C to -20°C and 10 km/h (6 mph) winds. These temperature ratings are only valid in hiking conditions.
The MT 500 Fleece Gloves have been given a warmth rating of 1 out of 5.
Recommended temperature: 5°C.
Limit temperature: 0°C.

How is usage temperature measured?

Optimize insulation by applying the layering principle. Wearing liner gloves in addition to gloves creates several air pockets that effectively insulate your hands from the cold. The gloves must be big enough not to compress your fingers. This is because compression slows down blood flow in the fingers, which prevents them from staying warm.

How to effectively protect your hands from the cold

Winter accessories

Compression helps improve running performance. 

Muscle support

Loop pile fabric and special yarn in specific areas reduce blisters. 

Reduced chafing

Elastic

We conducted a study on the effects of compression when running. 
The study proved that when runners wear Kiprun compression socks:
1 - Improved blood flow by 47%, increasing oxygen levels in the muscles
2 - Reduced vibration in the tissues, decreasing muscle damage
3 - Improved running biomechanics
As a result, wearing Kiprun sleeves improves running performance.

Compression improves performance:

The compression from the sock is effective DURING exertion. 
This sock is not suitable for recovery.

During exertion

For superior performance, take various precise measurements of your biggest calf and select the matching sock size.
size M - calf circumference: 32 cm (12 1/2") / 36 cm (14")
Size L – calf circumference: 37 cm (14 1/2") / 41 cm (16")

How to choose your size

Roll your sock back over itself from the calf down to the ankle.
Using both hands, stretch your sock out to the side to get it over your foot and ankle, then roll it carefully up the leg from just above the ankle joints.
Adjust the sock so it stops just below the knee, ensure the material is evenly spread around the calf with no folds along the leg.*

How to slip the calf sleeve on

* * Priority should always be given to the fit below the knee.

Type of Socks

These socks are sold in packs of 2 pairs. Some packs have socks in different colours or designs.

Pack of 2 pairs

When hiking, it’s important to regulate moisture as best you can. If your shoe is breathable, it will wick away moisture more easily, so you can choose an absorbent, breathable sock. If your shoes are relatively waterproof, you’ll want to make a different choice: you need a sock that will absorb and wick perspiration away.

Choosing the right hiking socks

This sock comes in 3 lengths. The low sock reaches slightly above the shoes but under the ankles. They’re designed to be worn with low-cut shoes. The mid-height sock stops just above your ankles. Ideally, they’re worn with shoes with low uppers.  The high sock is best for shoes with medium or high uppers as it covers your ankle completely, stopping just below the calf.

Choosing the right hiking sock height

You need to choose the right sock size to prevent bunching. The elastane helps the socks stay in place. It’s essential to try your socks on before going hiking.

Choosing the right hiking sock size

Our hiking socks are guaranteed for two years.
Our commitment: To offer you long-lasting products that you can use on all your nature walks.
