The 580 jacket has been developed with extremely sturdy fabric and assembly that prevent water getting in and reduce the sensation of wind to better help you face bad weather (rain, snow, wind). To check that it is waterproof, this jacket was placed in a special shower reproducing the conditions a skier has to cope with. We approved this product's waterproofing by skiing in different weather conditions for several days.

The water-repellent property of a fabric is its capacity to allow water to run off its surface without seeping in. The 580 jacket is equipped with water-repellent properties that extend its resistance to bad weather. This is an additional technical solution for staying dry for as long possible on the ski slopes. To remain effective, this treatment must be renewed regularly, using products sold in our stores.

The coating is a waterproofing material spread over the inner surface of a fabric. It prevents water from seeping into the garment but allows the water vapor produced by an active body to escape. So you stay dry for greater comfort while practicing your sport.

It is a product that lets the water vapor produced by the body during exercise escape, keeping you dry. To see if a fabric is breathable, we measure its resistance to evaporative heat (RET) in a standardized ISO 11092 test. The lower the RET, the more breathable the fabric. Wed'ze uses high-tech materials and solutions (zippers, ventilation, mesh) that help prevent condensation inside the garment. RET of the 580 jacket < 12

The membrane is a very thin fabric applied to the inner surface of the outer fabric. It is hydrophilic and blocks the water arriving from the exterior while wicking away the perspiration produced by the body inside. A membrane is essential for staying warm and dry.

The snow skirt is a protection system at waist level that closes with press studs at the bottom of the ski or snowboard jacket. It prevents snow and air from entering when on the slopes, especially in the event of a fall.

We use padding for insulation to help keep you warm. This polyester-based synthetic material traps air, the quantity of which will depend on the size of the fibers. Standard, technical and silicone padding are available, each with its own distinct properties: warmth, lightness, flexibility, etc.

To keep warm and dry, use the 3 breathable-layers rule: 1 base layer, 1 fleece to retain heat and 1 ski jacket to protect you from bad weather.

In addition to waterproof fabric, we strengthen the watertight properties of the jacket with taped seams. These are waterproof adhesive strips taped to the inside seams of the garment to make it perfectly watertight. These taped seams are present on the areas most exposed to snow (shoulders and chest).

You no longer need to get out your ski pass! Your sleeve has a ski pass pocket, allowing you to access lifts quickly.

We know how much energy is expended during a day's skiing or snowboarding. That’s why we take particular care in choosing all the elements that make up our products to guarantee the best possible protection.

Your ski jacket features cuffs at the wrists. They prevent unpleasant cold draughts and snow from getting inside in the event of a fall.

This insert made of a soft and very absorbent high-tech fabric effectively wipes water drops from your ski goggles without scratching the lenses.

You no longer need to get your ski pass out because your sleeve has a ski pass pocket to allow you to access the cable cars quickly.

The snow skirt is a protection system at waist level that closes with press snaps at the bottom of the ski or snowboard jacket. It prevents snow and air from entering during practice and especially in case of falling.

The jacket features an Audio output in the inside pocket for passing a hands-free phone kit, audio cable for listening to music, etc.

To optimize your jacket's performance and durability, we advise the following: Machine wash separately at 86°F. Synthetic cycle. Turn inside out. Use a small amount of detergent. No softener. Wring out manually. Dry on a hanger in a warm, well-ventilated place. Do not dry clean. Do not place on a radiator. You can re-waterproof the outer fabric using an aerosol waterproofing spray for fabric. Read the care tag carefully.

All Wed'ze products are designed and developed in the Mont Blanc Valley. They are then tested under conditions of use identical to those you yourself will encounter in use (snow, cold, powdery snow). The design teams ensure that the program for which the product was designed and developed is in keeping with its use in the field.

Store on a hanger and do not fold, as this can damage the fabric coating. Make sure that the garment is completely dry before storing in a dry and well-ventilated place.
