TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS

Water repellent without PFC

The fabric of this jacket is water repellent: it lets water slide over its surface without seeping in. In this way, the fabric doesn’t soak up water and stays light and breathable. The water repellent property is achieved by treating the fabric's exterior.

Waterproofing of the component of this jacket

The waterproofing of a fabric by a coating or a membrane is measured in Schmerbers or H20 mm (pressure of a water column). The higher this number, the more waterproof the fabric.
This jacket is designed with a waterproof coating (JIS 1092 standard): this component resists 5,000 mm H20 (Schmerbers) before washing (equivalent to the pressure exerted by a 5 metre column of water).

WATERPROOFNESS OF THIS JACKET

The waterproof properties of this jacket aren’t just limited to its components: the assembly technique of the different parts is also an evaluation criterion.
Sewn then sealed, the overall waterproof properties of your jacket are measured using a shower test developed by Decathlon that simulates rain of varying intensity.
As such, this waterproof NH500 jacket protects you from a light shower, equivalent to 6 cm of rain in 1 hour.

Resistant performance of your jacket

To maintain a water-repellent fabric, we recommend reactivating it regularly.
Do this every three washes (it is important to rinse abundantly) or after a dozen uses in the rain.
You can easily reactivate the water repellent property by warming the fabric:
- in a tumble dryer for 15 minutes (synthetic program)
- with a hair dryer at a distance of 20 cm by going back and forth twice
- or two passes with an iron on the delicate setting without the steam function.

Fabric breathability

The fabric of this jacket is breathable: RET = 12.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 fabric
RET ≤ 12: breathable fabric
RET ≤ 20: little or no breathability

Available from XS to 3XL

Our priority? That our hiking clothes fit all body shapes and figures! So that everyone who wants to can enjoy hiking trails in complete comfort. That's why this jacket is available from XS to 3XL.
