Men's Snow Hiking Warm Jacket SH900

I-Reflect Technology: the aluminized I-Reflect film weighs only a few grammes but reflects 65% of the infra-red radiation emitted by the body. It improves the garment's insulation performance by an average of 15%, significantly reducing heat loss.

Short parka cut. Standard cut. This jacket is sized to allow it to be worn over a warm second layer such as a down gilet or fleece pullover.

Lined with polyester wadded filling and fitted with a removable synthetic fur edge. Height is adjustable using an elastic drawcord and toggles. Depth is adjustable using a rip-tab positioned at the rear of the hood.

Ribbed edges on cuffs to prevent heat loss.

Central two-way zipper to remain comfortable when sitting or squatting.

Care products: detergent, spray or liquid water repellent treatment. To renew the fabric's water repellent properties and optimize the performance and the lifespan of your garment.

Ambient temperature is thermally neutral: the user feels neither hot nor cold. Use temperature, in accordance with standard ISO 11079, under the following conditions: Walking at 2.5 mph, no wind, cloudy. Jacket worn together with: upper body: long-sleeved T-shirt + shirt + sleeveless down gilet / lower body: tights + fleece base layer + pants / head: chapka + hood / hands: under-gloves + gloves / feet: ski socks + boots.

We test a fabric's resistance to water pressure by measuring the height of a column of water supported by the fabric in mm (test based on the ISO 811 standard). The higher the pressure, the more the fabric is waterproof. A component with a waterproof rating of 2000 mm can withstand the pressure exerted by a 2000 mm column of water (the equivalent of a 2-hour downpour approximately).

A fabric is water-repellent when it allows water to slide over its surface without seeping in. This prevents the fabric from swelling, and keeps it lightweight and warm. The fabric is made water repellent by treating its outer surface. This treatment must be renewed throughout the garment's lifetime (recommended after every wash). Water repellent treatment products are available in our stores. All Quechua waterproof jackets have received a water repellent treatment.

To 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 vapor generated by physical activity can escape, and the higher the fabric's breathability. For example: RET < 9 = extremely breathable fabric / 920 = little or no breathability.

Technologies: this garment has been subjected to a shower test using 16 gallons of water/sqm/hour for 2 hours. This test reproduces the average conditions of a rain shower in the mountains.

The product's environmental impact is calculated over its entire life cycle using different indicators. An ABCDE rating is given to help you easily identify the most environmentally-friendly products by comparing them with other products of the same type (T-shirts, pants, backpacks). Decathlon is committed to displaying environmental information. Explanatory video: https://youtu.be/8t63KkRwn_8 sustainability.decathlon.com
