lightweightWeighs only 350 g in size 10 years
ventilationHydrophilic coating (RET=12): Reduces condensation. Two ventilation zips
robustnessRipstop component to withstand abrasion. 2-year warranty- WATERPROOF FEATURE OF THE COMPONENTWe measure a fabric's resistance to water pressure, expressed in terms of the height of a water column in mm (based on the ISO 811 standard). The higher the water pressure, the more waterproof the fabric. A component with a 10,000 mm rating can withstand the pressure of a 10,000 mm column of water (which is equivalent to a 3-hour rain shower). Waterproof rating is expressed in Schmerbers (for example: 10,000 Schmerbers).
- COMPONENT BREATHABILITYComponent breathability is measured by its thermal evaporative resistance (RET). This is its capacity to let water vapour generated by the body during physical activity escape and therefore avoid water 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
- COMPONENT RESISTANCEResistance to wear and abrasion test: for example, we check that our fleeces do not pill using tests conducted in laboratories. Colour retention test: the colour fastness is verified to ensure that the colours do not bleed when coming into contact with saliva. Ageing test: repeated washing should not affect the fabric's properties, behaviour, thickness or appearance.
- Windproof effectCoating applied to the fabric makes it waterproof and windproof. Waterproof fabric has the necessary technical characteristics to be considered windproof. Protection from the wind is critical, as whether playing sports or at rest, wind can chill the body significantly.
- TECHNICAL DETAILSCuff adjustment with rip-tab straps. Extra length at back to protect rear when sitting down. 2 ventilation zips at front. Media pocket with headphone feed.
- Care1/ Machine wash (30°C): fasten rip-tabs and use mild detergent. Wash jackets and trousers inside out. Loosen straps and elastics. 2/ Avoid folding the garment too much in the washing machine: this can damage it. 3/ Do not mix clothing styles and colours. 4/ Don't use bleach. 5/ Choose a full rinse and gentle spin cycle. 6/ Drying option: Either line or tumble dry (low temperature, short cycle).
- WHERE DO OUR JACKETS COME FROM?Created in our international design centre at the foot of the Mont Blanc in France, this fleece is then manufactured and assembled by our suppliers in China and Vietnam. These are partners that have genuine expertise in making our tents and with whom we are in close collaboration. Thanks to this relationship of trust with our industrial partners, we can create high-quality technical products.

Ecodesign approach
Analysing the product's environmental footprint enabled us to identify the most impactful stages of its life cycle. Thanks to this approach, our design teams were able to develop this product while significantly reducing its environmental impact.More about our approach
Designed to reduce environmental impact
Product made with a CO2eq reduction of 16% compared to the previous or similar productOur design teams are working to develop processes that will reduce the impact of a product, while preserving its technical characteristics. This reduction relates to the following indicators: climate change, air pollution, water pollution and resource depletion.
