Main Material

The resistance of a fabric is measured by the height of a water column in mm that can be supported by the fabric (test based on the JIS 1092 standard)The higher the water pressure, the more waterproof the fabric. This garment has been subjected to a shower test using 60 L of water/sqm/hour for 2hThis test reproduces the average conditions of a rain shower in the mountains
A component with a 5,000mm rating can resist the pressure of a 5,000mm column of water (equivalent to a 2h-long rain shower)

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).

Technical details

Our Quechua global design centre is based in Passy, at the foot of Mont Blanc in Haute-Savoie, France. 
This location makes it a real meeting place for our teams and outdoor sports enthusiasts. 
It’s the perfect spot for designing our hiking products.

Product design: our outdoor experts

Created in our international design centre at the foot of Mont Blanc in France, these rain pants are then manufactured and assembled by our suppliers in Vietnam and Bangladesh.
These are partners that have genuine expertise in making our rain pants and with whom we collaborate closely.

Style

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.

Condition

Type of Brushing Boots

Adjustable Length

This garment was subjected to a shower test using 60 litres of water/m²/hour for 2 hours. This test reproduces average rain shower conditions 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 Schmerber units (for example: 5,000 Schmerbers). 

Component waterproofing

To assess the breathability of the fabric or the evaporative resistance, we measure RET (test based on the ISO 11092 standard). The lower the fabric's resistance, the more water vapour generated by physical activity evaporates, and the higher the fabric's breathability. For example: RET < 9 = extremely breathable fabric/9 < RET < 12 = very breathable fabric/12 < RET < 20 = breathable fabric/RET > 20 = little or no breathability.

We conduct numerous laboratory tests to validate the highest standards in terms of durability: an abrasion- and friction-resistance test to ensure that the fleece does not pill; a colourfastness test to check the behaviour and resistance of the colours; and an aging test to ensure that repeated washing does not alter the fabric’s properties, thickness, or appearance.

What does the UV protection do?  
It protects your eyes from UV rays.
UV radiation is present in winter and summer, in sunny and cloudy weather, and can be harmful to your eyes and eye contours.
The lenses are made of polycarbonate mixed with UV protection against the harmful rays of the sun (UVA and UVB).

UV protection

Tinted lens classification based on ISO 12312-1 standard: 
- Category 1: lens with a light tint for reduced sunlight. 
- Category 2: lens with a medium tint for average sunlight. 
- Category 3: dark lens for strong sunlight (sea and mountains). Between 82% and 92% visible light absorbed.
- Category 4: very dark lens, for exceptional sunlight (high mountains). Between 92% and 97% visible light absorbed.

Glare

Our lenses are made of polycarbonate, which is resistant to impacts but easily scratched. 
Even if your lenses are scratched, the UV protection does not decrease; the mirror effect is purely for aesthetic purposes.
The same goes for the colour of our tinted lenses.
Choose your glasses according to your preference—all colours will protect your eyes.

type of waterproofing

breathability (in RET)

Removable Hood

The resistance of a fabric is measured by the height of a water column in mm that can be supported by the fabric (test based on the JIS 1092 standard).The higher the water pressure, the more waterproof the fabric. A component with an impermeability of 5,000 mm will therefore withstand the pressure exerted by 5,000 mm of water (which corresponds roughly to a 1-hour downpour). Waterproofing is expressed in Schmerber units (for example: 5,000 Schmerbers). This number applies before washing.

A coating applied to the fabric makes it waterproof and windproof. Technically, a waterproof fabric is also windproof. Protection from the wind is critical, as wind can chill the body during physical activity.

Windproof effect

Component breathability is measured by its thermal evaporative resistance (RET). 
This allows perspiration to escape during physical activity, preventing it from accumulating on the skin. 
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.

The warmest fleece: long pile and a density of 300 g/m².

Polyester knit: lets through water vapour generated by the body.

Ease of use

Machine wash at 30°C. Quick drying. No ironing needed (crease-free).

This fleece jacket keeps your children warm when hiking and in everyday life. 

type of hood

The fleece component traps air thanks to the volume created by its texture (and the brushing of the knit).
This air acts as a natural insulator, keeping the body warm.

Fleece material: Insulation provided by the air trapped inside.

We conduct numerous laboratory tests to validate the highest standards in terms of durability: an abrasion- and friction-resistance test to ensure that the fleece does not pill, a colourfastness test to check the behaviour and resistance of the colours and an aging test to ensure that repeated washing does not alter the fabric’s properties, thickness, or appearance.
