Pockets :
2 front zip pockets and one inside chest pocket.
Hood:
The lined, waterproof hood is removable with snap fasteners.
Sleeves:
Ribbed finish for comfort and reduced air ingress.
Measuring the impermeability of a fabric :
This garment has been validated in a shower test under 60 liters of water/m²/hour for 2 hours.
We measure a fabric's resistance to water pressure expressed in mm water column (test based on ISO 811 standard). The higher the pressure, the more waterproof the fabric. A component with a waterproof rating of 2000 mm will therefore withstand the pressure exerted by 2000 mm of water, roughly equivalent to a 2-hour shower.
Measuring the breathability of a fabric :
Pour savoir si un tissu est respirant, on mesure sa résistance évaporative ou 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 il est respirant. Par exemple : RET < 9 = tissu extrêmement respirant.
