We developed your jacket for intense wintry conditions: intense cold, snow, blizzards. The insulation is provided by thick fill made of a synthetic component that insulates by trapping air in its fibers (double layer on the body and single layer at the arms).We added a long inner flap underneath the zipper to stop cold air from entering. The system is supplemented by a drawstring at the hem to make the jacket comfortable down to -4°F.

Your jacket is designed with a waterproof outer component that keeps out water and wind. To keep you warm in winter you must also protect your extremities (head, hands, feet). The anti-blizzard hood with detachable synthetic fur, wrist sleeves, and a stand-up collar prevent cold infiltration. The high hand-warmer pockets with fleece lining are perfect for protecting your hands in a comfortable position.

We designed your extreme cold jacket with a coating on the outer fabric to make it waterproof. We measure a fabric's resistance to water pressure, expressed in terms of the height of a water column in mm (based on the ISO 811 standard). The higher the water pressure, the more waterproof the fabric. Components with a 2,000 mm rating can withstand the pressure of a 2,000 mm column of water (which is equivalent to a rain shower lasting 2 hours).

Your jacket taped main seams make it waterproof. Waterproof tape is added to the seams inside the garment to make them watertight so that water cannot enter through the more vulnerable areas.We validated the waterproofing with a shower test specially designed to replicate the conditions of a 2-hour shower. We also wore it in the field in all weather conditions to make sure that it is suited to your activities.

Practical and smart details: 2 hand warmer pockets, 2 outside pockets with flap, 1 secure inside pocket, 2 inside mesh pockets to have everything close at hand. The main zipper has a long zipper pull and press studs and thumb pass so you can open or close your jacket while keeping your hands tightly snug in your gloves. The 2 easy zippers at the bottom of the jacket allow you to bend or sit down comfortably.

We designed this jacket with a comfortable fit so that it could be worn with a warm 2nd layer such as a fleece or light down jacket.Its longline parka style is ideal for protecting you from the cold and wind during your winter hikes in large hilly areas or in the mountains.

To ensure the durability of our products, we perform tests on components: resistance to rubbing and abrasion, colorfastness, resistance to repeated washing. All these tests have been carried out on the component on your jacket.

A fabric's water-repellent property is its capacity to make water run off its surface without seeping in. This prevents the fabric from soaking up water and keeps it lightweight, warm, and breathable. The water-repellent property is achieved by treating the fabric's exterior. This treatment must be renewed throughout the garment's lifespan (recommended after each wash). Products (spray or liquid) for this purpose are available in our stores.

To dress properly in winter, whatever your activity, we recommend using the 3-layer principle:layer 1: The high-tech base layer transfers moisture away from the body to keep your skin dry.layer 2: The 2nd layer (fleece, sweater) provides warmth and transfers moisture outward.layer 3: The jacket protects you from outdoor conditions: rain, snow, wind. The whole outfit must be breathable in order to eliminate moisture.

All our products are tested in the field by user representatives and these tests are run in parallel to our laboratory tests. By conducting this comprehensive and stringent dual testing process, the technical features and design of our Quechua products are continually being improved. Your regular feedback is also taken into account to constantly improve our range.

We advise you to wash your jacket with the zipper closed.Always make sure that this waterproof garment is completely dry before storing it.
