All our products are tested in the field by user representatives and these tests are run in parallel to our laboratory tests. By conducting this comprehensive and demanding dual testing process, the technical features and design of our QUECHUA products is being continually improved. Your regular feedback is also taken into account to constantly improve our range.

Storage advice

Store in a dry, dark place.
We recommend you avoid using chemicals such as bleach, which could degrade the garment’s thermal insulation properties.

Test

We carry out 2 types of thermal testing:
- a test of the trousers’ material.
- a test on a thermal dummy in a thermal chamber.
Here, we reproduce the temperature, wind (5 km/h) and humidity conditions that you’ll typically encounter in the mountains when walking at 5 km/h.
These tests validate our design choices and we then adapt the thermal insulation to where you need it most.
