Thermal insulation - Warmth

This padded jacket, worn as a 3rd layer, has been certified for an active comfort temperature of -5°C during a standardised test in a thermal chamber. The model is wearing a synthetic long-sleeved T-shirt and a light fleece underneath. It works with a simulated 5 km/h wind. In our heat comparison tool, it represents 2 stars. We have also tested this model in "static" mode; the comfort temperature is +5°C in this case.

Technical information on the wadding

We use 100% polyester wadding weighing 125 g/sqm in the body and 100g/sqm in the sleeves and hood. The wadding is made from silicone-coated spiral fibres that make it highly compressible and highly durable. Despite its low thickness, it has high insulation properties thanks to the air trapped inside, and remains lightweight. It retains its warmth even when wet.

Durable materials

This polyamide fabric that uses 20 denier thread can withstand 20,000 abrasion cycles. Martindale test, Standard 12947-2 Outer: 100% polyamide fabric 39g/sqm, 20 denier Lining: 100% polyester fabric 35g/sqm, mix of 15 to 20 denier threads

Water repellent property of component (not to be confused with waterproofing)

The water-repellent property of a fabric is its capacity to make water run off its surface without absorbing it. This prevents your padded jacket 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.

How to restore water-repellent properties?

The water-repellent treatment becomes less effective with time, washing and use. Here is how to restore the water-repellent properties of your padded jacket! https://www.forclaz.uk You can also use the care product: Treatment restoring water-repellency https://www.decathlon.co.uk/p/fabric-waterproofing-liquid-250-ml/_/R-p-308192

HOW TO REPAIR YOUR PADDED JACKET IF IT HAS A TEAR?

A tear on a padded jacket can happen when trekking and the good news is it can be repaired! You can either mend it or apply a heat-bonded patch so that the tear doesn't get any bigger and the synthetic fibres escape. Don't you feel at ease carrying out this repair yourself? Don't worry! Our in-store Decathlon workshops offer a repair service for your padded jackets.

Valuable advice for improving the durability of your down jacket!

In general, do not wash a down jacket too frequently because each wash decreases its thermal properties.
