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 adjustable hood , cuffs and stand-up collar keep the cold out. The hand warmer pockets with a fleece lining are perfect for protecting your hands.

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.
What are the advantages of a down and feather filling?
This 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.
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.
