Main Material

We measure the water resistance of a fabric in mm (based on the ISO 811 standard). The higher the water pressure a fabric can withstand, the more waterproof it is.
Waterproofing ratings:
Resistant to water pressure of 2,000 mm before and after ageing (5 washes). That’s equal to 15,000 Schmerber (the average pressure exerted during rainfall).
These pants were tested in 2 hours of moderate rain (60 L/m²/h).

Waterproof properties

Rinse with clean water after use.
Store in a dry place.
Wash as infrequently as possible to protect the water-repellent treatment.
Wash inside out, pocket zipped, on the synthetics cycle (30°C–40°C) with regular detergent. Do not use fabric softener. Do not overload your machine. Run extra rinse.
Line dry.
To restore its water repellency, tumble dry inside out on the synthetics cycle for 10–15 min.

Care instructions

Breathability
To find out if a fabric is breathable, we measure its resistance to evaporative heat transfer (RET). The lower the resistance, the more a fabric allows the body’s perspiration escape.
- RET < 9 = extremely breathable
- RET 9–12 = very breathable
- RET 12–20 = breathable
- RET > 20 = not very or not at all breathable

We made sure your boots are waterproof using a standardized laboratory test as well as use and ageing tests in the field.
The one-piece construction ensures that no water can enter.

Fully waterproof

We developed a scale to measure and rate the traction of our products in the lab.
Traction is determined by the material and design of the sole. This product has a grip level of 3 out of 5.

How do you measure the grip?

This model comes in double sizes. It’s important to choose a size that fits snugly when you’re wearing your usual socks.
If it’s too big, you’ll experience chafing, poor foot support, and poor traction.

How to choose the right size

The top of the boot features a ridged strip that provides extra grip while you’re pulling it on.
A small jutting edge at the heel makes the boot easy to take off hands-free.

Easy to pull on and off

If water gets in through the top of the boot, remove the insole, rinse out the boot, and dry thoroughly by placing it upside down over a broom handle. Dry in a well-ventilated area. Keep away from heat sources.

We measure a fabric’s resistance to water pressure in mm of water column (based on the ISO 811 standard). The higher the water pressure a fabric can withstand, the more waterproof it is.
Waterproofing ratings:
Component resistant to water pressure of 5000 mm before and after ageing (5 washes). This is equal to 5,000 Schmerber (the average pressure exerted during rainfall).
The anorak's waterproofness was tested in a rain shower with 60 litres of water/m²/hour for 2 hours.

Waterproofing 1/2

- High collar
- Injection-moulded plastic to avoid salt oxidation
- Water-repellent components (water runs off the fabric)
- 100% taped seams
- Central opening features a flap with a drainage channel for optimal waterproofing

Waterproofing 2/2

The hood is attached and doesn’t stow into the collar.
Height- and depth-adjustable.
The hood visor and headband provide good coverage and a better hold.
The high collar protects your neck.

Features 2 front zip pockets and 1 inner right chest pocket with a rip-tab closure. Note: Pockets are not waterproof.

The full-length zipper includes an inner storm flap that protects you from wind and water,
and the collar has a soft flap to shield your chin.

Front zipper

To find out if a fabric is breathable, we measure its resistance to evaporative heat transfer (RET). The lower the RET, the easier it is for water vapour generated during physical exertion to pass through the fabric.
For example:
RET < 9 = very breathable;
RET 9–12 = breathable.
This jacket has two components with the following RET values:
> more resistant fabric: RET < 12 (or 3621 g/m²/24 h, JIS1099A standard)
Lighter fabric: RET < 8 (or 2972 g/m² /2

This jacket stays lightweight and breathable in wet conditions because water
slides off the treated fabric instead of seeping in. The water-repellent coating applied to the jacket’s exterior may change over time.
To restore it, place the jacket in the dryer for 10 minutes at the lowest temperature.

Water repellency

To preserve its water-repellent coating, do not wash this jacket too often.
Close all zippers and flaps, empty all pockets, and turn the jacket inside out. Wash it on the synthetics cycle at 30°C or 40°C with your usual detergent. Don’t use fabric conditioner or bleach, as these could damage the water-repellent coating. Very important: Choose a full-rinse cycle or extra rinse.

How to wash your jacket

Drying is a crucial phase in restoring the water-repellent treatment.
We recommend laying your garment flat on a clothes rack to dry. Warning: Never dry your jacket directly on a radiator.
Next, put your garment in the dryer and run a short synthetics cycle (10–15 min.) before turning it right-side-out. Caution: Do not over-dry the garment.

Ventilation

The waterproofing of a fabric is measured in Schmerbers or mm of water (pressure of a water column). The higher this number, the more waterproof the fabric. 
This jacket is designed with a waterproof coating: this component resists 5,000 mm of water (Schmerbers) before washing (equivalent to the pressure exerted by a 5,000 mm column of water).

Water resistance of the fabric

The fabric of this jacket is water-repellent, i.e., water runs off its surface without being absorbed. This keeps the fabric from soaking up water so the jacket stays lightweight and breathable. Water repellency is achieved by treating the fabric’s exterior. The main seams are also taped.

Fabric water repellency

Our fabric is extremely breathable (RET 12). 
Breathability is measured according to the product’s thermal evaporative resistance. This refers to its capacity to release perspiration during activity. The lower the thermal evaporative resistance (RET), the higher the fabric’s breathability.

RET < 9 = extremely breathable 
RET < 12 = very breathable 
RET < 20 = breathable 
RET > 20 = slightly breathable to not breathable at all

Fabric breathability

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 reactivate the water repellency properties by warming the fabric: 
- in a dryer for 15 minutes (synthetics cycle) - with a hair dryer, held 20 cm (8”) away from the fabric, moved back and forth twice over each section 
- with an iron on the delicate setting, steam function off, two passes over each section

How to maintain the water resistance of your jacket over time

When we’re active, how much we perspire depends on the intensity and duration of the effort.If the fabric’s breathability is not right for your type of activity, sweat condenses inside the jacket.You will feel damp:This moisture is not rain soaking through the shell but condensation caused by perspiration.You need to choose your jacket according to the type of physical activity.This jacket is designed for the occasional one-day hike at a speed of 5 km/h (3 mph).

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

For full protection against wind and rain, we recommend the NH 500 Rain Pants too.

Customization

The waterproofness of a fabric, provided by a coating or membrane, is measured in Schmerbers or mm (pressure exerted by a column of water). The higher this number, the more waterproof the fabric. 
This jacket is designed with a waterproof coating: this component resists 5,000 mm of water pressure (Schmerbers) before washing (equivalent to the pressure exerted by a 5-metre column of water).

Water resistance (fabric)

To determine a fabric’s breathability, we test its evaporative resistance or 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 fabric
RET < 12: very breathable fabric
RET < 20: breathable fabric
RET > 20: little or non-breathable fabric.

The fabric for this jacket is water-repellent: water slides off its surface. In this way, the fabric doesn’t soak up water and stays lightweight and breathable. Water repellency is achieved by treating the fabric’s exterior. Our water-repellent coatings are now perfluorocarbon-free. As a result, this model will be sold with a more environmentally friendly water-repellent treatment.

Your health is our top priority

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”)
- with an iron on the delicate setting and with the steam function off

How to maintain waterproofing over time

How much you perspire depends on the intensity and duration of your physical activity.If the fabric isn’t breathable enough for the type of activity/exercise, your perspiration will condense inside the item.The jacket will feel damp inside. This dampness is not rain soaking through but condensation caused by perspiration. This means you need to choose top-layer pants suitable for your activity.This product is designed for 2-hour hikes at no more than 5 km/h (3 mph).
