MH100, Waterproof Hiking Jacket, Women’s

This jacket has a cut that fits all shapes while still looking very feminine. A warm layer such as a fleece or light sweater can be worn underneath. Inner lining can also provide more comfort. You can choose your usual size, or a size above if you don't want it to be worn fitted.

Press studs make the hood removable. It can be adjusted in height using an elasticated cord and adjusted in depth using a Velcro tab located at the back of the hood.

This jacket is constructed with 2 coated layers, including a mesh lining (large mesh lining) ‘2 layers’ means there is the outer fabric and the lining. A coating is applied to the inside of the fabric. It is similar to a resin that makes the component waterproof, while remaining breathable. The inner lining of the jacket has the role of protecting this coating

The waterproof rating is measured by the fabric's resistance to water pressure expressed in terms of the height of a water column in mm (test based on the ISO 811 standard). The higher the water pressure, the more waterproof the fabric. The component of this product has a waterproof rating of 5,000 mm, i.e. it can withstand the pressure exerted by a 5,000 mm column of water. This is also equivalent to 5,000 Schmerbers.

Component breathability is measured by its thermal evaporative resistance (RET). This is its capacity to let water vapor 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 fabric RET ≤ 12: breathable fabric RET ≤ 20: little breathability Our product has a 12 RET rating

The water-repellent property of a fabric is its capacity to make water run off its surface without absorbing it. This prevents the fabric from soaking up water and keeps it lightweight and breathable. The fabric is made water-repellent by treating its outer surface; however, this property may deteriorate with use. All the steps to restore the water-repellent properties are below:

Because we are aware that we must act to preserve our playground, Quechua is committed to limiting the environmental impact of its products. Today, this product is not eco-designed, but we work every day to make it more responsible: Eco-design, repairability, and durability are at the heart of our development process.

A product's environmental impact is calculated over its entire lifecycle using various indicators. A score from A to E is produced to help you make a responsible choice. This rating is used to easily identify the products with the best environmental performance. This is done by making a comparison between products of the same family (e.g. backpacks). Decathlon is a voluntary supporter of this environmentally-friendly labeling approach.

Our Quechua global design center is based in Passy, at the foot of Mont-Blanc in Haute Savoie. This location makes it a real meeting place for our teams (designers, product managers, engineers, etc.) and outdoor sports enthusiasts. A great asset for designing our hiking products and providing you with all our expertise.

Care products: spray or liquid water-repellent treatment in the washing machine. To renew the fabric's water-repellent properties and optimize performance throughout the lifespan of your garment.

The environmental impact of each product is calculated for the product's entire lifecycle, using different indicators. A general ABCDE rating is attributed to help you identify the product with the best environmental performance by comparing similar types of product to each other (T-shirts, pants, backpacks, etc.). Decathlon is committed to displaying environmental information. For more information: http://sustainability.decathlon.com/

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: Morphology (especially thanks to the 3D analysis) Movement sciences Thermal comfort (with its 4 climatic chambers) Behavioral and sensory sciences + we describe the specific aspects of the test related to the product (e.g. shower, wind tunnel, etc.)

Always make sure that this waterproof protective garment is completely dry before storing it.
