Waterproofing
The jacket is waterproof up to 10,000 Schmerbers thanks to its fabric, fully taped seams and waterproof zips. This jacket has been validated in a shower test: the fabric can resist up to 10,000 mm of water pressure after 5 washes.
In addition, this jacket has a bottom elastic fastening system for your comfort to limit the air getting in when you are cold.
Breathability
It is breathable (RET < 6) thanks to its membrane. To find out whether a component is breathable, we test its evaporative resistance or RET (based on the ISO 11092 standard). The lower the fabric's resistance, the more the water vapour generated by an active body is evaporated, and the higher the fabric's breathability. For example: RET < 9 = extremely breathable fabric / RET <12 = very breathable fabric / RET < 20 = breathable fabric / RET > 20 = low breathable fabric.
Easy storage
The jacket has 2 pockets for greater comfort, as well as a waterproof separate storage pocket (in the left-hand pocket) for storing your jacket in a bag after use, without getting your things wet.
Hood
The jacket has a hood with an elastic clamping system. It accompanies head movements as a whole and avoids you have to turn your head only inside the hood. A semi-rigid visor prevents water running down the front under heavy rain.
Collar
The jacked is equipped with a wide 'storm' collar to protect the back of the neck and also to keep trail runners insulated on long runs outdoors or on trails in bad weather.
