TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Which filling will keep my jacket warm?

Renowned for their high level of thermal insulation, down and feathers (in the under-jacket) also offer an excellent weight/warmth/compression ratio. However, it's important to remember that the warmth is provided by the combination of the down/feather weight and the loft of the under-jacket. Together, they keep you warm and insulate you from the cold.

Which components added to the filling keep you warm?

In addition to the lining of your under-jacket, the sleeves, snow skirt, waterproof zips and hood adjustment on the jacket keep warm air inside and prevent cold air from entering.

What is a membrane and what is it used for?

The membrane is a very thin component applied to the inside of the outer fabric. Hydrophilic, it blocks water coming from the outside and also evacuates perspiration produced by the body from the inside. To stay warm and dry, a membrane is a must.

How is waterproofness measured?

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 12,000mm will therefore withstand the pressure exerted by 12,000mm of water.

What parts of the jacket protect me from the elements?

The 980 jacket has been developed with a rigorous component and assembly that blocks the passage of water and limits the sensation of wind, to help you cope with the elements (rain, snow, wind, etc.). To validate its waterproofness, this jacket was placed under a special shower reproducing the conditions a skier would encounter. We validated the waterproofness of this product in practice over several days in different weather conditions.

Why is my jacket water-repellent?

A fabric's water repellency is its ability to let water slide off its surface, without absorbing it. The 980 jacket is equipped with water-repellent components that prolong its resistance to bad weather. This treatment must be renewed regularly, using products sold in our stores, to maintain its performance.

How do you reactivate the water repellency of your jacket?

Note that the water-repellency can be reactivated. To do this, tumble-dry the jacket on the synthetic program for 10 to 15 minutes.
You can also use a waterproof spray (sold in our stores): spray the product evenly all over the garment, then leave to dry for 10 to 12 hours.)

Easy to find

The 980 jacket features a Recco system at the back of the collar to facilitate avalanche search.

What does a "breathable" jacket mean?

It's a product that lets the water vapor produced by your body during exercise escape. To determine whether a fabric is breathable, its evaporative resistance (RET) is measured in an ISO 11092 standard test. The lower the RET value, the more breathable the fabric. The 980 jacket has an RET of 8. However, it's the technical solutions (zips, vents, mesh) used by Wedze that limit condensation inside the garment and maximize breathability.

What is the cut of the 980 jacket?

Slim fit. The jacket is tighter at the bust. The interior volume allows this jacket to be worn with a first and second technical layer.

How should you dress to stay warm on the slopes?

To stay warm and dry, simply apply the 3-layer rule:
- Layer 1 or second skin, to stay dry.
- Layer 2 or insulating layer, to retain heat.
- Layer 3 or protective layer, to protect from the elements.

How do you prevent snow from falling in?

The snow skirt is a waist protection system that snaps onto the bottom of the ski jacket. The snow skirt, together with the adjustable sleeve cuffs, prevents snow and air from entering the jacket during practice, particularly in the event of a fall.

How do I wash my undershirt?

* Close all down jacket zips
* Turn the down jacket inside out
* Machine wash at 30°, on a gentle program with little detergent and no fabric softener.
IMPORTANT: set the spin speed to very gentle (less than 800 rpm): spinning too hard may create feather balls that are difficult to remove
* Add 2 clean, ideally white, tennis balls to the washing machine drum.
* A second or third rinse to remove any remaining detergent from the previous wash.

How do I dry my undershirt?

Tumble-dry (highly recommended)
* Gentle or delicate program.
* Use several long cycles to dry thoroughly.
* Between 2 cycles, pat the down to separate the feather balls that have formed in the wash.
If you don't have a tumble-dryer, the process takes longer (drying can take 1 to 2 weeks in a dry, flat place). Be sure to pat the jacket to avoid featherballs (at least 4/5 times).

Where do the feathers come from?

Our traceability system enables us to guarantee the origin of the feathers, in line with our commitment to responsible materials. Our suppliers are committed to using only feathers from ducks raised for their meat and plucked after slaughter.
