It is trimmed with a detachable faux fur edging. Its Storm hood offers very good coverage and protection. The height is adjustable using an elastic cord and toggle, and the depth is adjustable using a rip-tab at the back of the head.  Consequently, the space inside can be adjusted to be worn with warm headgear, such as a wool hat or trapper hat. \u003cbr\u003eIt is waterproof and all the seams are taped.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat is each pocket used for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOn the outside, there are: \u003cbr\u003e- 2 warm pockets lined with fleece to warm the hands\u003cbr\u003e- 2 over-pockets with flaps closing with press studs that are also very deep for storing a hat or small water bottle\u003cbr\u003e- 2 large chest pockets, which close with waterproof zips, for items that need to be protected from the rain \u003cbr\u003e- 1 shoulder pocket with a flap, for storing your suncream, for example. \u003cbr\u003eInside, there are: \u003cbr\u003e- 2 large mesh pockets, ideal for storing gloves\u003cbr\u003e- 1 phone pocket\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow does this jacket protect you from the cold?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn addition to its generous down\/duck feather filling, there is a tightening system at the hem of the jacket with an elastic cord and toggles to block cold air from getting inside as much as possible. \u003cbr\u003eThis parka also has built-in lycra cuffs to prevent heat loss. \u003cbr\u003eThe high collar of this parka will also give you a feeling of warmth and protection at the neck. Finally, the central closing system is protected by a padded flap, which protects from the wind.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAn improved closing system thanks to your reviews!\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe jacket was originally designed with a central double-slider zip to be opened on both sides. You told us that it was difficult to handle the zip and that it was fragile. We improved this point by replacing it with a very durable central zip, with a single slider for easier handling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow is the temperature rating measured in the laboratory.\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe tested the ambient temperature, at which this jacket ensures thermal neutrality (the feeling of being neither hot nor cold), in a laboratory.This is how we were able to measure this jacket's protection down to -20°C.\u003cbr\u003eIn accordance with the ISO 11079 standard, we respected the following conditions:walking at 5 km\/h, no wind, cloudy.Jacket worn together with the following on top: long-sleeved T-shirt, shirt \u0026amp;sleeveless down jacket; at the bottom: tights, under-trousers \u0026amp;trousers \u0026amp;a trapper hat.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCOMPONENT WATERPROOFING OF THIS JACKET\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe waterproofness of a fabric, provided by a coating or membrane, is measured in Schmerber or mm H²0 (pressure exerted by a column of water). The higher this number, the more waterproof the fabric. \u003cbr\u003eThis jacket has a waterproof component (JIS 1092 standard), capable of resisting 10,000 mm H²0 (Schmerber) before washing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWATERPROOFNESS OF THIS JACKET\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe waterproofness of a jacket isn’t limited to just its components: the assembly technique of the different parts is also an evaluation criterion.\u003cbr\u003eWhether heat-sealed or sewn then waterproofed, the overall waterproofness of your jacket is measured using a shower test developed by Decathlon, which simulates rain of different intensities.\u003cbr\u003eAs such, this waterproof jacket protects you from a downpour, i.e. 12cm of rain in 2 hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eComponent breathability\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo find out whether a fabric is breathable, we test its evaporative resistance or RET (based on the ISO 11092 standard). The lower the fabric's resistance, the more water vapour generated by physical activity can escape, and the higher the fabric's breathability. For example: RET \u0026lt; 9 = extremely breathable fabric \/ 9\u0026lt;RET\u0026lt;12 = very breathable fabric \/ 12\u0026lt;RET\u0026lt;20 = breathable fabric \/ RET\u0026gt;20 = little or no breathability.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eQuantity of feathers for each size\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the quantity of feathers for each size of the parka. \u003cbr\u003eXS = 335 g \u003cbr\u003eS = 407 g\u003cbr\u003eM = 425 g\u003cbr\u003eL = 451 g\u003cbr\u003eXL = 465 g\u003cbr\u003eXXL = 496 g\u003cbr\u003eXXXL = 522 g\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe advantages of a duck down and feather filling\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe durability and fill power properties of down give this jacket 3 qualities for hiking:\u003cbr\u003e- Thermal insulation thanks to the air trapped in the down and feathers\u003cbr\u003e- Ultra low weight: down is lighter than synthetic wadding while offering the same degree of warmth. This saves even more weight in your backpack\u003cbr\u003e- Ultra-compressible\u003cbr\u003eThis 75% down\/25% feather jacket has a guaranteed filling power of 600 CUIN\/30 g.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy is the hood filled with wadding and not feathers?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe know that the thermal performance of wadding is not impaired when it gets wet. That's why we used cotton wadding in our hood. Indeed, if you leave the hood open during a shower, the hood will soak up water, given that the lining isn't waterproof. A feather hood would quickly lose its thermal properties. This is not the case with wadding!\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRemove synthetic fur lining before washing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSecure fasteners closed before washing. Gentle cycle, machine wash cold with like colors. Wash with mild detergent or down wash and 2 clean tennis balls. Do not use bleach or fabric softener. Rinse thoroughly at least twice. Tumble dry low with 2 clean tennis balls. Remove promptly and fluff after each cycle until dry. Do not dry clean, iron or steam. Store in a cool and dry location.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDo not use fabric softener.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWash with zip closed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eStorage advice\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eStore in a dry, ventilated place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTest\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTo help you find gear that is effective in real-life conditions, Forclaz, working in partnership with Decathlon Research, provides temperature ratings for its extreme cold product lines. Tests are carried out in an environmental chamber to measure the thermal insulating properties of products on a dummy. Physiological studies carried out by the Decathlon SportsLab teams are used to supplement these results in order to calculate the level of warmth\/cold perceived by users in real-life use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eComponent\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMain fabric: 100.0% Polyester\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eComponent\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMain lining: 100.0% Polyamide\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eComponent\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eSynthetic fur: 90.0% Acrylic, 10.0% Polyester\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eComponent\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePadding: 100.0% Polyester\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eComponent\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePocket lining: 26.0% Elastane, 74.0% Polyester\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"QUECHUA","offers":[{"title":"lunar grey \/ S","offer_id":51500392251631,"sku":"4691285","price":151.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"lunar grey \/ M","offer_id":51500392284399,"sku":"4691286","price":151.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"lunar grey \/ L","offer_id":51500392317167,"sku":"4691287","price":151.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"lunar grey \/ XL","offer_id":51500392349935,"sku":"4691288","price":151.66,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0820\/6902\/9103\/files\/20-c-men-s-waterproof-snow-hiking-parka-jacket-arctic-500-grey-quechua-8772366_315d72ec-7437-40cb-ae83-d961b3dce54d.jpg?v=1794465700","url":"https:\/\/everstrideoutdoors.shop\/products\/decathlon-hk-8772366-usd","provider":"Everstride","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
