anatomic designDrawcord at the jacket hem adjustable sleeves with good coverage adjustable hood- CutThis jacket has a fitted cut. The fabric is 13% elastane and the “raglan” sleeves up to the collar give better stretchability and more freedom of movement during your hikes. A warm layer, such as a fleece or a light padded jacket can be worn underneath. You can choose your usual size, or a size above if you don't want it to be worn fitted.
- HoodThe adjoining hood is adjustable in height and depth thanks to an elastic drawcord. Stiff visor for maximum face protection. The small detail that makes the difference: a triangular opening on the side of the hood for better visibility to the sides.
- Construction of the jacket: 3 layersThis jacket is made up of 3 layers, the best protection there is on the market: the membrane is glued between the inner and outer component layer (hence it being called 3 layers). The membrane is a kind of very thin polyurethane film that makes the component waterproof while remaining breathable. It is protected by a mesh, and has the advantage of being softer, lighter, more durable and often more breathable than a coating.
- How to look after your jacketThis jacket has waterproof strips (to ensure perfect waterproofing) that are sensitive to machine washing and can peel off over time. We therefore recommend using a sponge with water to clean any traces on your jacket, and that you very rarely wash it in the washing machine at 30°C, if you want it to accompany you on a hike for as long as possible.
- WATERPROOF TESTINGWaterproofing is measured by a fabric’s resistance to water pressure expressed in mm of water column (JIS 1092 standard) The higher the pressure, the more waterproof the fabric. The fabric used to make this product has a 20,000 mm waterproof rating, and it can withstand the pressure of a 20,000 mm column of water. This is also equivalent to 20 000 Schmerbers.
- BREATHABILITY TESTComponent 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 6 RET rating
- How do you restore the water repellent properties of your jacket?The water-repellent property of a fabric is its capacity to make water run off its surface without absorbing it. This prevents the fabric from soaking up water and keeps it lightweight and breathable. The fabric is made water-repellent by treating its outer surface, however this property may deteriorate with use. All the steps to restore the water-repellent properties are below: https://conseilsport.decathlon.fr/conseils/comment-reactiver-la-deperlance-de-sa-veste-tp_22965
- Recommended additional productThe MH500 over trousers protect the lower half of your body for a complete and effective rain protection system for your mountain outings.

Usage & care
Environmental impact
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 29% 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.
Recycled polyester
Product made from 4% recycled polyesterUsing recycled polyester rather than conventional polyester reduces the CO2 emissions linked to the material by at least 17%.
