Why a hybrid construction on these overtrousers?
These two-component overtrousers feature a combination of:
- A tough, protective component (147 gr/m2 ; 70 Denier) on areas to be protected from chafing (knees, lower legs, buttocks)
- A lightweight, breathable component (109 gr/m2 ; 20 Denier) on the rest of the overtrousers.
What are the advantages of side zips on these waterproof overtrousers?
Side zips allow:
- Easy donning of overtrousers without having to remove shoes.
- Regulation of body temperature
The use of a waterproof zip with double slider not only regulates body temperature, but also allows easy donning of overtrousers without having to remove shoes.
Press studs at the waist and ankles ensure a perfect fit.
What features ensure that overtrousers grip and stay on shoes?
- The lower legs have an elastic band with silicone inside to improve grip on the shoe.
- A hook is located at the bottom of each leg, enabling it to be attached to the shoe laces to prevent the overtrousers from riding up when walking.
How waterproof are the various components?
The waterproofness of a fabric, ensured by a coating or a membrane, is measured in Schmerber or mm of water (pressure exerted by a column of water).
This product has 2 waterproof components (JIS 1092 standard):
- A main component resistant to 20,000 mm of water (Schmerbers) before washing
- A secondary component, at the top of the legs, resistant to 20,000 mm of water (Schmerbers) before washing.
How breathable is this fabric?
Pour savoir si un tissu est respirant, on mesure sa résistance évaporative RET (test basé sur la norme ISO 1099). Plus la résistance est faible, plus le tissu laisse s’échapper la vapeur d'eau générée par le corps en activité, donc plus le tissu est respirant.
On considère que si :
- RET < 9 = tissu très respirant
- 9 < RET < 12 = tissu respirant
Voici les valeurs de respirabilité du sur-pantalon :
- RET < 8 pour le composant principal
- RET < 12 pour le composant secondaire
