breathabilityHydrophilic coating RET=12: reduces condensation in the clothing- Waterproofing of the component of this jacketThe waterproofing of a fabric by a coating or a membrane is measured in Schmerbers or H20 mm (pressure of a water column). The higher this number, the more waterproof the fabric. This jacket is designed with a waterproof coating (JIS 1092 standard): this component resists 5,000 mm H20 (Schmerbers) before washing (equivalent to the pressure exerted by a 5 metre column of water).
- WATERPROOFNESS OF THIS JACKETThe waterproof properties of this jacket aren’t just limited to its components: the assembly technique of the different parts is also an evaluation criterion. Sewn then sealed, the overall waterproof properties of your jacket are measured with a shower test developed by Decathlon that simulates rain of varying intensity. As such, this waterproof NH550 jacket protects you from a shower, equivalent to 12 cm of rain in 2 hours.
- Preserving the performance of your jacketTo maintain the water-repellency of the fabric, we recommend reactivating it regularly. Do this every three washes (it is important to rinse abundantly) or after a dozen uses in the rain. You can easily reactivate the water repellent property by warming the fabric: - in your tumble dryer for 15 minutes (synthetic program) - with a hair dryer at a distance of 20 cm going back and forth twice - or twice over with an iron on the delicate setting without the steam function
- Fabric breathabilityThe fabric of this jacket is breathable: RET = 12. Component 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 or no breathability
- Technical hoodThe hood can be adjusted in height using a drawstring. It can be adjusted in depth thanks to a velcro tab at the back of the hood. The hood has a shape memory visor for good protection of the face.
- Technical liningsThe jacket lining is made up of two materials: mesh in the back to improve the garment's breathability and nylon at the hips to maximise ease of movement and resistance to wear. We have used an ultra-soft fabric on the hood for added comfort.
- Complete pocket systemThe jacket has seven pockets in total! Two side pockets for warming your hands. Two large external bellows pockets with flap and press stud closure. One outer chest pocket and one inside pocket with zip closing to secure your personal belongings. One inner mesh pocket, to keep your gloves for example, and keep them warm against your body!
- Choose your waterproof jacket according to your sports effortThis jacket is designed for a day hike at a speed of 5 km/h on level ground. During sports activity, the extent to which we perspire depends on the intensity or the duration of the physical effort If the breathability of the fabric is not adapted to your type of physical activity, the perspiration vapour condenses inside the jacket You will feel damp inside this is not rain coming through but perspiration vapour condensing Choose a waterproof jacket according to your level of physical activity.
