Thermal insulation - Warmth This padded jacket has been validated for a comfort temperature of -5 °C through a protocol-based test carried out in a thermal chamber. The mannequin is wearing a long-sleeved synthetic T-shirt and a light fleece underneath. It walks with a simulated wind of 5 km/h. It corresponds to a 2-star level in our warmth comparator. Functionality - Inner flap under the zip to protect from the wind. - Elasticated cuffs. - Flap at the top of the collar to protect the chin. - Adjustment by elastic cord and self-locking piece at the bottom of the garment. - Hood with elastic trim. Technical information about the wadding We use 100% polyester wadding of 125 g/m² in the body and 100 g/m² in the sleeves and hood. The wadding is made of siliconised helical fibres, which give it great compression capacity and high resistance. Despite its thinness, the wadding offers a high level of insulation with great lightness thanks to the air trapped inside. The wadding offers the advantage of retaining heat even when wet. Resistant materials This polyamide fabric uses 20 denier threads (unit of measurement for the thickness of a thread) and resists 20,000 abrasion cycles. The resistance is calculated using the "Martindale" test, Standard 12 947-2. This test consists of rubbing the jacket material against another material in order to check the wear limits of the product. Outer: 100% polyamide fabric of 39 g/m² and 20 denier. Lining: 100% polyamide fabric of 35 g/m², a mix of 15 and 20 denier threads. Water-repellent effect of the component (not to be confused with waterproofness). The water-repellent effect of a fabric is its ability to let water slide off its surface without absorbing it. Thus, the fabric does not become soaked with water and remains light and warm. The water-repellent effect is obtained by a treatment applied to the outer face of the fabric. You must renew the treatment during the life of the garment (recommended at each wash). For this, you can find re-waterproofing products in our stores. How to reactivate the water-repellent effect? After washing the padded jacket, we recommend using a water-repellent reactivating liquid to preserve the hydrophobic properties of the outer fabric. This allows the fabric's water-repellent effect to be regenerated and the garment's performance to be optimised throughout its useful life. You will find it in the store and on our website by entering the code 8554908. A valuable tip for looking after your padded jacket. In general, it is not recommended to wash a padded jacket too often, because each wash reduces its thermal properties. Does your padded jacket have a tear? How should it be repaired?
