Main Material

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 water repellency 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 

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).

Component waterproofing

The fabric of this jacket is breathable: RET = 12.Component breathability is measured using thermal evaporative resistance (RET). 
RET refers to a fabric’s capacity to let perspiration evaporate. 
The lower the RET, the more breathable the fabric. 
RET ≤ 6: very breathable fabric
RET ≤ 12: breathable fabric
RET ≤ 20: little or no breathability

Fabric breathability

This rain jacket has been designed for a two-hour hike at a pace of up to 5 km/h (3 mph), without elevation gain.
How much you perspire depends on the intensity and duration of your physical activity.If the fabric is not breathable enough for your activity, perspiration will condense inside the jacket.This makes you feel damp.This dampness is not rain soaking through the shell, but condensation caused by perspiration.You need to choose a rain jacket according to your type of physical 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.

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. Turn the boot over and slip it onto a broomstick.

How to dry your boots

When your boots are smudged, simply run them under water and rub them with a sponge. If the smudges are hard to remove, you can rub them with a little soap and a wet sponge.

Sailing boots maintenance

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 your shoe size

The top of the boot features a ridged strip that provides extra grip while you’re pulling it on.
The heel has a lug that you can push down to remove the boots easily, even while standing.

Easy to pull on and off

These boots are lab-tested to verify waterproofing, then tested in real-life conditions.
Their one-piece construction ensures that no water can enter.

How can I be sure that my boots are 100% waterproof?

The boot’s collar may seem wide compared to your kid’s calf. But it is totally normal. A kid’s instep is really important so that they can put on the boot independently. The collar must leave enough space. This design choice helps give your kid autonomy when putting the boot on and taking it off.

The boot’s inner sock is comfortable and has good insulation to keep their feet warm.
The moulded, removable sock liner is machine washable.
Do not wear barefoot. Avoid wearing shorts, as rubbing can irritate kids’ calves.

Type of Bell

This garment has been subjected to a shower test using 60 L of water/sqm/hour for 2 hours. This test reproduces the average conditions of a rain shower in the mountains.
A waterproof rating of 5,000 mm means the fabric can withstand pressure exerted by 5,000 mm of water (the equivalent of a rain shower lasting for two hours).
 Waterproofing is expressed in Schmerbers (for example: 5,000 Schmerbers).

Waterproof feature of the component

Component breathability is measured using thermal evaporative resistance (RET). 
RET refers to a fabric’s capacity to let perspiration evaporate. 
The lower the RET, the more breathable the fabric. 

RET ≤ 6: very breathable fabric
RET ≤ 12: breathable fabric
RET ≤ 20: Little breathability.
 
Our product has a 12 RET rating.

Component breathability

A fabric is water-repellent when water slides 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. This treatment must be renewed throughout the garment’s lifetime (every 3 washes).

The must-have for staying dry during hikes or school outings: a lightweight, colourful jacket ready to accompany kids on all their adventures.

Maximum wash temperature of 30°C. Delicate cycle.

The fabric’s water resistance is measured in water column mm (JIS Standard 1092). The higher the value, the more waterproof the fabric. This garment has passed an intense shower test: 60 l/m²/hour for one hour, simulating a shower in the mountains.

Waterproof fabric

The JIS L 1099 B1 test measures the water vapour passing through a fabric over 24 hours, in grams per m². The higher this value, the more breathable the fabric. Performance of 5,000 g/m²/24 hrs is very good for your children’s hikes.

Breathable material

The jacket can be stored in its own pouch for easy transport. It’s fitted with a zippered centre opening, a hood, as well as elasticated cuffs and waistband for optimal handling and enhanced wind protection.

Practical and compact

Nothing could be easier for maintaining the jacket’s waterproofing capacity. Reactivate the protective layer every 3 washes or after 10 uses in the rain. Either: 15 minutes in a tumble drier, or with a hair dryer held 20 cm away.

Shoe Height

These boots are available in sizes UK Jnr sizes 2.5-5 (printable size chart: pdfcoffee.com/pedimetreuepdf-pdf-free.html). For hiking, consider one size above your tween’s normal size for optimal comfort on descents, preventing the toes from bumping against the boot.

What size should I choose?

Have your tween try on both boots while standing up, with the socks worn for hiking. 
Check two comfort points: the base of the heel and the front part of the foot while going down. During your first few outings, gradually have them try them out to get used to them.

How do you test your boots?

With use and over time, the boots’ waterproofing capacity may decrease. To reactivate their water-repellency and prevent stains on the outside, we recommend using a re-waterproofing treatment product after a year.

Cushioning

These shoes were developed for your children to walk on easy trails.

Certified sole grip. 
To be certified, the shoes must pass lab tests to assess their grip (0.6 for this model) on various surfaces (smooth, rugged, dry, wet). 
These tests are validated by a panel of testers who evaluate the quality of our soles out in the mountains across 500 km (311 miles).

Sole grip

For hiking, it’s best to go one size up from your child’s usual shoe size. This will ensure optimal comfort on the way down and prevent the toes from hitting the end the shoe. Tip: keep toenails short and, before any descent, check that the straps and/or laces are properly fastened to prevent the foot from slipping forward in the shoe.

Which size should you choose?

Allow children to try on both shoes, standing up, with the socks they will be wearing while hiking. Check two comfort points: the base of the heel and the front part of the foot while standing on a downward incline. Avoid all pressure points when trying shoes on.
Break your shoes in gradually during your first few trips.

Tips

Removable insole for faster drying. It can also be replaced by an orthopaedic insole.
