How does my jacket protect me from outdoor conditions?
Your jacket has been designed with a waterproof outer component that blocks the passage of water and wind. In winter, to stay warm, you must also protect your extremities (head, hands, feet). The anti-blizzard hood with removable synthetic fur, cuff adjustment and stand-up collar keep the cold out. The handwarmer pockets with a fleece lining are perfect for protecting your hands.
In addition, we've added a wide inner flap under the zipper to block cold air out.
Water often seeps in through the seams. Does my jacket have taped seams?
Your jacket is waterproof thanks to its full taped seams. The installation of waterproof adhesive strips on the inside of the garment makes the seams watertight, limiting water ingress.
We validated the waterproofing with a shower test specifically designed to replicate the conditions of a 2-hour downpour. We also wore it in the field in all conditions to ensure that it is very suitable for your practice.
What are the advantages of a goose down and feather filling?
This goose down parka jacket, filled with 90% down / 10% feathers, has a fill capacity of 800 cuin which gives it many qualities for trekking:
- Excellent heat input with minimal weight.
- Thermal insulation thanks to the air trapped in the down and feathers.
- Ultra-lightness: for the same warmth, the feather is lighter than synthetic wadding.
The water repellency of outer fabric
The water repellency of a fabric is its ability to let water slide over its surface, without absorbing it. This means that the textile does not become waterlogged and remains light, breathable and warm. Water repellency is obtained by a treatment applied to the outer surface of the fabric.
Volcano ash yarn lining fabric
When the fabric is placed under a certain irradiation intensity, the temperature of the sample rises due to the absorption of light energy, and the maximum temperature rise value of the sample surface within 20 min is recorded to be ≥6°C, and the average temperature rise value is ≥4.4°C.
The practical and clever pockets
2 handwarmer pockets, 2 buckle pockets, 2 closed chest pockets, 1 secure interior pocket, 2 interior mesh pockets to have everything at hand.
How do I dress well for snow hiking?
To dress well in winter, whatever your activity, we advise you to apply the 3-layer principle:
Layer 1: Technical underwear allows moisture transfer to keep the skin dry.
Layer 2: The second layer (fleece, sweater) provides warmth as well as moisture transfer.
Layer 3: The jacket protects against external conditions: rain, snow, wind.
The whole thing must be breathable to wick away moisture.
Will my jacket withstand regular use over time?
In order to ensure the resistance of our products, we carry out tests on the chosen components: resistance to friction and abrasion, color fastness, resistance to repeated washing. All these tests have been done on the component of your jacket.
