Component impermeability
With a waterproof rating of 5000mm, the Renfort 500 waterproof jacket offers a high level of waterproofing. A fabric's resistance to water pressure is measured in mm water column (test based on ISO 811). The higher the pressure, the more waterproof the fabric. A component with a water resistance of 5000mm will therefore withstand 5000mm of water pressure (roughly equivalent to a thunderstorm).
Garment waterproofing
The Renfort 500 impe jacket has been validated in a shower test under 100 liters of water / m² / hour for 3 hours. This test reproduces the conditions of a light shower / downpour / thunderstorm / storm.
Water-repellent
A fabric's water repellency is its ability to let water slide off its surface without absorbing it. This means the fabric doesn't become waterlogged, and remains light, breathable and warm. Water repellency is achieved by a treatment applied to the outer face of the fabric. This treatment needs to be renewed over the life of the garment (we recommend every wash). Products for this purpose are available in our stores. Solognac waterproof jackets are water-repellent.

Repair a snag yourself
"Your garment has a tear? How can you repair it?
A tear can happen during your workout.
The good news is that it can be repaired! You can apply an iron-on patch to prevent the tear from getting bigger or the fibers from escaping. A patch, scissors, an iron and you're done!"
