Windbreaker jacket - softshell - warm - MT500 - men’s

Thermal lab tests

Our jackets are tested to ensure optimum comfort when trekking. Our tests allow us to determine the comfort temperature, the ideal temperature when you are in a static position or in the evening when bivouacking. This fleece has been laboratory-tested for a comfortable temperature from 7 to 10°C when worn as 2nd layer.

Water-repellent lab tests

The water-repellent property of a fabric is its ability to make water run off its surface without absorbing it. As a result, the fabric does not soak up water and stays light, breathable and warm. A fabric is made water-repellent by applying a treatment to its outer surface, which needs to be reapplied regularly. We conduct laboratory tests that simulate rainfall scenarios in order to ensure a jacket is water-repellent.

Validated in the field

Our teams, along with a panel of testers (made up of partners, ambassadors and customers) put our jackets through their paces in the mountains, to ensure they stand up to the conditions you’ll encounter during your treks.

All our products are tested throughout their development until they go to market.
