Main Material

This long-sleeved T-shirt offers optimal balance between warmth and breathability.
We used 2 fabrics:
- The main fabric is made from 89% merino and 11% polyamide (for durability) and weighs 240 g/m².
- The fabric for the inserts, particularly at the back and inside the forearms, is made from 63% merino, 24% acrylic (facilitates drying), 9% polyamide (for durability), and 4% elastane and weighs 260 g/m².

Fabrics used

Merino wool reduces body odour. This means that you can wear this long-sleeved T-shirt for several days in a row and carry fewer clothes when hiking.

For a softer feel, wash your shirt before first use.

Tip before use

We recommend machine washing your merino wool long-sleeved T-shirt at 30°C on a normal cycle, preferably with liquid detergent. 
Dry flat and do not tumble dry, to avoid shrinkage.

Packaging

Wool fibres can store a lot of air and let water vapour escape, making wool an excellent choice for moisture management and thermal regulation. Wool’s ability to store and release moisture make it an insulating, comfortable material for hiking socks.

The properties of wool

The merino wool, from Spain, has been a carefully selected breed for generations because of its wool. It provides a softer fibre than traditional wool. After shearing, the wool is cleaned to remove impurities, then carded, spun, and finally used for knitting or weaving.

What is merino wool?

Merino wool offers an unbeatable experience: soft, lightweight, and breathable. Thanks to its fine fibres, it provides natural thermal regulation. It keeps your feet warm in cool weather and cool in warm weather.

What are the benefits of merino wool?

To stay warm when hiking in the winter, we recommend: 
- Warmth: wear warm socks (ideally with a good percentage of wool). 
- Breathability: choose socks based on the intensity of the hike and, to minimize moisture, make sure they’re breathable.
- Boot height: the height of your socks should correspond to the height of the boot: for more protection, choose higher socks.

How do I choose the right footwear for hiking in the snow?

These socks come in packs of 2 pairs of matching socks.

Pack of 2 pairs

The stretchy fabric means these socks conform to your feet and stay firmly in place. Given that the length, width and volume of our feet is always different, we advise trying on your socks in store before purchase, and testing them before going on a long hike.

A loose cut for freedom of movement

Two types of tests measure the warmth of this jacket: fleece material and thermal mannequin in a thermal chamber.
These tests reproduce the mountain conditions (wind, humidity, temperature) that you might encounter. This lets us validate our design and adjust the thermal insulation.

How does the material provide insulation from the cold?

Two types of tests measure warmth:
- a material test 
- a test on a thermal dummy in a thermal chamber Here, we reproduce the temperature, wind (5 km/h) and humidity conditions you’re likely to encounter in the mountains during a 5 km/hr walk
These tests are used to validate our design choices, and everything is then validated by our testers out in the field.

How is warmth measured?

When hiking or during other outdoor activities, it’s perfectly normal to sweat. To prevent your fleece jacket from turning into a sauna, we’ve designed it using a breathable fabric that wicks away moisture from the body. We’ve also added a zipper collar for better ventilation.

A breathable fleece

The large kangaroo pocket is perfect for warming up your hands. It will also hold gloves or a hat. 

A handy pocket

5,000 mm H2O (Schmerbers) and fully taped seams for one hour of protection

Take on the rain with our hiking jacket! Its 5,000 mm H2O waterproof fabric (Schmerbers) and taped seams keep you dry in a sudden downpour. Tested in our “Decathlon shower”, it can withstand 6 mm of rain in one hour! Explore trails or strolls around town, protected and stylish.

What is its waterproofing ability?

Schmerbers measure the waterproofing of a fabric. The higher the number, the drier you’ll be. Our jacket displays 5,000 mm H2O (Schmerbers): it can withstand the pressure exerted by a 5 m water column! In practical terms, it protects you from 60 L / sqm / hr of rain for one hour.

What are Schmerbers?

2 simple methods to restore the water-repellent properties of your jacket:
- Tumble dry on a synthetic cycle for 15min
- Hairdryer: 2 passes at a distance of 20cm
Repeat every 3 washes (thorough rinsing is essential) or 10 rainy outings.

Customization

Type of Bell

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.

Fabric breathability

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).

Choosing waterproof rain pants based on physical effort

For full-body protection from the wind and rain, we recommend the Raincut 1/2 zipper or full zipper men’s jackets.

Working conditions in our production workshops

Wool fibres surrounded by polyamide yarn for increased durability.

Durability

Merino wool offers a good balance between warmth and compactness.

Superfine merino wool (18.5 microns) is very soft and comfortable.

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

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.

RECCO system

With Straps

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. The garment should be retreated over its lifespan (recommended after each wash). Products for this purpose (spray or liquid) are available in our stores.

What is water repellency and how can you maintain it?

The inside fabric is brushed—a tried-and-tested method for retaining heat. The principle is simple: the knit component is designed to trap air, which acts as a natural insulator, keeping the body warm. Animal fur and feathers work on exactly the same principle. 

How can I be sure that these pants are warm enough for winter hiking?

The slim fit and stretchy fabric provide essential freedom of movement. The zipped pockets keep personal items secure (tissues, lip balm, keys, etc.).
