TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Cutting information

Close-fitting style. Inner volume enabling this jacket to be worn in conjunction with a thin micro-fleece 2nd layer.

Thermal comfort and windproofing

Wind considerably increases the sensation of cold. For example, at an outside temperature of 0°C, a 20 km/h wind will cause the perceived temperature to drop to -10°C. Windproof components eliminate the discomfort associated with this cooling effect. By forming a barrier against the wind, they effectively reduce heat loss.

Protection features

- Bottom tightening with elastic drawcord and tankas
- Cuff tightening with hook-and-loop fasteners
- Adjustable hood

Component water repellency (not to be confused with waterproofing)

A fabric's water repellency is its ability to let water slide off its surface, without absorbing it. As a result, your jacket won't become waterlogged, and remains light and breathable. Water repellency is achieved by a treatment applied to the outer face of the fabric, but in use it can be altered. You can find out how to reactivate the water repellency of your softshell in our article "Maintaining, washing and repairing a waterproof or water-repellent garment" available on the Forclaz website.

Recommended complementary product

To reactivate water repellency, you can use the textile repermabilizing liquid available in stores or on the website under reference 8554908,
. It regenerates the fabric's water repellency and optimizes the performance of your garment throughout its lifetime.

TESTS

In November 2018, 8 trekkers (4 men and 4 women) accompanied by part of the Forclaz design team tested this jacket for 4 days in the French Southern Alps (Lus la Croix Haute). The program included wind, rain, a little snow, a bivouac... and lots of good humor! We were thus able to make some final modifications and validate it for mountain trekking use.
