What makes a jacket waterproof? This is the fabric's resistance to water penetration. This is measured using a standardised water pressure test. Given that the average rainfall varies between 1000mm and 2000mm, a fabric is considered to be waterproof from 2000mm. Our products withstand pressures ranging from 2000 to 10,000mm, and therefore have very good waterproof properties suited to all conditions, even the most adverse.

What is the so-called shower waterproof test? Standard test in which the garment is placed under a shower simulating various weather conditions. All our products are certified 100% waterproof after a test lasting over 4hrs simulating a shower of 100L/hr/m² depending on the product's use. For the sake of comparison, the world rainfall record of 174L/hr/m² for a period of 4½ hrs in the USA has stood since 1942 (National oceanic and atmospheric administration, USDC) and when it rains in Paris, the average is only 2L/hr/m² (www.Paris.fr).

What is meant by taped seams? These are watertight (or waterproofed) seams thanks to waterproof or thermo-bonded tape. Applied behind the seams, they are essential for waterproofing the garment and preventing any water from entering by capillary action (water entering as it is absorbed by the thread and/or the stitch holes).

Wind-proof: The fabric is waterproof and therefore wind-proof thanks to the coating or membrane applied to the inside. Indeed, the properties of a waterproof fabric certify it as wind-proof as well. Wind protection is very important, when exercising or at rest, as wind has a strong cooling effect on the body.

Tests: The materials are made for children's clothing: colour fastness is checked to ensure no bleeding due to contact with saliva.

Washing: 1/ Machine wash (30 to 40°C): close touch'n'close parts, mild washing powder. Wash jackets and trousers inside out. Remember to loosen the straps and elastic parts. 2/ Do not fold the clothing too much in the machine: risk of damage. 3/ Do not mix clothing styles and colours. 5/ Do not use bleach. 6/ Select high rinse and low spin.

Drying: Hang on a washing line or tumble dry (low heat, short time). Warning: Avoid placing NOVADRY®-labelled garments near to heat sources as this may damage the membrane or breathable coating.
