Description

Design details

Water resistance of the fabric
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 (Schmerbers) before washing (equivalent to the pressure exerted by a 5,000 mm column of water).
Fabric water repellency
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 breathability
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
How to maintain the water resistance of your jacket over time
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 min. (synthetic cycle) - with a hair dryer, held 20 cm away from the fabric, moving back and forth twice over each section - with an iron on the delicate setting, steam function off, passing over each section twice
Choose your waterproof jacket according to the intensity of your activity
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.
Other recommended products
For full protection against wind and rain, we recommend the NH 500 Rain Pants too.
