Main fabric: 100.0% Polyester ; Coating: 100.0% Polyurethane ; Sleeve lining: 100.0% Polyester ; Pocket: 100.0% Polyester ; Hood: 80.0% Polyamide, 20.0% Elastane

Standard cut. The inner volume allows you to wear it over a warm 2nd warm layer such as a pullover or fleece.

Adjustable height with an elastic cord and tightening toggle. Adjustable depth using a Velcro strip positioned at the back of the hood. Visor at the top of the hood for good face protection.

2.5 layer design: The membrane is glued under the outer fabric and protected inside by a fine film. We use it for lightweight jackets.

The waterproof rating of a product depends on the following two main criteria: its component and its construction. This product was made with a membrane.This is a kind of very thin plastic film (polyurethane) that makes the component waterproof while remaining breathable. It has the advantage of being flexible, lightweight and breathable.

Laboratory tests are conducted to guarantee the waterproof rating of a component. To this end, the resistance of a fabric is measured by the height of a water column in mm that can be supported by the fabric (test based on the JIS 1092 standard). The higher the water pressure, the more waterproof the fabric. This product's component has a 15,000 mm waterproof rating and can withstand the pressure of a 15,000 mm water column. This is also equivalent to 15000 Schmerbers.

We conduct laboratory tests that simulate rainfall scenarios in order to guarantee the jacket's waterproof rating. This garment has been subjected to a shower test using 60 litres of water/sqm/hour for 2 hours. This test reproduces the average conditions of a rain shower in the mountains.

Component breathability is measured by its thermal evaporative resistance (RET). This is its capacity to let water vapour generated by the body during physical activity escape and therefore avoid water accumulating on the skin. The lower the RET, the more breathable the fabric. RET ≤ 6: very breathable fabricRET ≤ 12: breathable fabricRET ≤ 20: not very breathable fabric This product was assessed at 10 RET

A fabric is water repellent when it allows water slide over its surface without seeping in. The fabric does not soak up water and therefore remains lightweight and breathable. The water repellent property is achieved by treating the fabric's exterior. This treatment needs to be renewed during the lifetime of the garment. The water-repellent property can be reactivated by putting the jacket in the tumble dryer for 10 minutes on low heat.You can also use the waterproof spray (ref 8554908)

Our Decathlon Sportslab laboratory, based in Lille, also contributes to the innovation and development of our Quechua products. It brings together 4 themes, each with their own area and technological tools:Body shape (3D analysis in particular)Movement scienceThermal comfort (with its four climatic chambers)Behavioural and sensory sciences

Always make sure this waterproof jacket is completely dry before storing it.
