Compared with our 100 jacket, the 300 jacket: - more waterproof fabric (15,000 Schmerbers) - rip-tab wrist fastening - interior flap with a drainage channel - hood that packs into the collar and can be adjusted in depth - neon yellow hood (on the grey jacket) so that you are visible - extra outer chest pocket Details below

Technical features of the component

Laminated fabric. Waterproof fabric: 15,000 Schmerbers - Water-repellent fabric (water runs off the fabric) - 100% taped seams

Collar and hood

The hood can be stored in the collar. The collar is then fastened with plastic press studs to prevent oxidation by salt. Completely depth and height-adjustable hood: adjustable at the back of hood and on the collar. The chin-high neck effectively protects the lower part of your face. 9 cm high collar (at the back)

Sleeve protection

The end of the sleeve is adjustable with a rip-tab. It lets you adjust the sleeve to your arm length, but also stops air and water coming in. To take off the jacket more easily, fully open the rip-tab

Front zip closure

The zip along the entire length is protected by an internal flap with a drainage channel for better waterproofing. Soft fabric flap at the top of the collar to limit chin irritation. Injected plastic zip to prevent oxidation by salt

pockets

2 pockets on the front of the jacket, for your VHF, sail tie, cap, etc. Injection-moulded plastic zip to prevent salt oxidation 1 inside chest pocket on the left side to store your phone or other items, fastened with a zip 1 inside chest pocket on the right side fastened by hook and loop PLEASE NOTE: the pockets are NOT WATERPROOF

Waterproofing 1/2 - the 300 jacket's component

We measure a fabric's resistance to water pressure in mm of water column (JIS standard). The higher the water pressure withstood by the fabric, the more waterproof it is. Here are the waterproofing ratings: Component resistant to water pressure of 5,000 mm after ageing (5 washes). Equates to 15,000 Schmerber (JIS standard), which is the average pressure applied by the water in a shower. The anorak's waterproofness was tested in a rain shower with 60 litres of water/m²/hour for 2 hours.

Component Breathability

To find out whether a fabric is breathable, we test its evaporate resistance or RET (ISO 11092 standard). The lower the fabric's resistance, the more moisture is evaporated, and therefore the higher the fabric's breathability. We consider that if: RET < 9 = very breathable fabric 9 < RET < 12 = breathable fabric. The Sailing 300 jacket's RET is < 9.

Water-repellent properties information

A fabric is water-repellent when water slides off the surface of the fabric, without seeping in. Your jacket does not become waterlogged and remains lightweight and breathable. The water-repellent properties are achieved with a treatment applied to the external side of the fabric, but in practice these properties can be altered. The water-repellent properties can be reactivated by putting the jacket in a dryer for 10 minutes at the lowest temperature.

How to wash your jacket?

To maintain the water repellent properties, infrequent washing is recommended. Close all zips and flaps, stow the hood and then turn the garment inside out to wash it. You can wash it on a synthetic cycle at 30°C or 40°C with your usual detergent. Do not use fabric conditioner, which could damage the existing performance of the garment, or bleach. Very important: choose a full rinse cycle or extra rinse.

How to reactivate the jacket's water repellency

Drying is a crucial phase in reactivating the water repellent treatment. We recommend that you lay your jacket flat on a clothes rack and leave it out to dry in the open. Caution: never dry your jacket directly on a radiator. Then place them in the tumble dryer on a short synthetics cycle, i.e. 10 to 15 minutes, before turning it back the right way round. Caution: do not over-dry the garment.
