Product waterproofing :
This ICE overtrouser has been validated in a shower test under 100 liters of water / m² / hour for 3 hours. This test reproduces the conditions of a heavy mountain storm.
Waterproof fabric :
We measure a fabric's resistance to water pressure expressed in mm water column (test now based on JIS 1092 B). The higher the pressure, the more waterproof the fabric. A component with a waterproof rating of 20,000 mm will therefore withstand the pressure exerted by 20,000 mm of water (roughly equivalent to a 3-hour shower).
With a waterproof rating of over 20,000 mm, these pants offer a very high level of waterproofing.
Fabric breathability :
Pour savoir si un tissu est respirant, on mesure sa résistance évaporative RET (test basé sur la norme ISO 11092). 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 pour une :
- RET < 9 = le tissu est très respirant
- 9- RET > 12 = le tissu est peu ou pas respirant.
Le pantalon ICE a une RET = 12
Maintenance of waterproof products
It is not advisable to wash waterproof products too frequently, as each wash reduces their properties.
- Before putting the jacket in the washing machine, close all zips, press studs, Velcro fasteners and pockets. Remember to loosen straps and elastic parts.
- Carefully follow the instructions on the jacket label (30°C)
- Use a liquid detergent for waterproof garments
- Do not use fabric softener
- Let the product air dry.
Reactivate the water repellency of waterproof products
Your jacket no longer water-repellent after several washes and uses.
You can reactivate the water-repellency with a liquid sold in machines
