Waterproofing 1/2
A fabric's resistance to water pressure is measured in mm water column (JIS standard). The higher the pressure, the more waterproof the fabric.
Here are the waterproof values:
Component resistant to a water pressure of 5,000mm Schmerber - average pressure exerted by water during a rain shower.
The jacket's waterproofness was tested under a rainfall of 60 liters of water/m²/hour for 2 hours.
Waterproofing 2/2
- Adjustable hem with Velcro tab
- Flap on central zipper
- Water-repellent components (water runs off fabric)
- 100% taped seams
How do I wash my overalls?
To preserve water repellency, we recommend that you limit the number of washes.
Close all zips and flaps, empty the pockets and then turn the garment inside out to wash inside out. You can wash it on a synthetic program at 30° or 40°C with your usual detergent. Do not use fabric softener, which could damage the garment's original performance, or bleach. Very important: rinse thoroughly or use a double rinse.
How do you reactivate the water repellency of your overalls?
Drying is essential to reactivate the water-repellent treatment.
We recommend that you let your jacket dry completely in the open air, flat on a drying rack. Never dry your jacket directly on a radiator.
Then tumble dry on the synthetic program for a short time (10 to 15 minutes) before putting it back on. Be careful not to over-dry the garment.
