Kids' waterproof rain jacket Sailing 100

Description

This children's sailing jacket has been designed for coastal sailing in rain, storms and wind. What is the level of waterproofing? The resistance of a fabric is measured by subjecting it to water pressure expressed in mm of water column (test based on the JIS standard). The higher the pressure, the more waterproof the fabric is. Waterproofing values: Component resistant to water pressure of 5000 mm before and after ageing (5 washes). Equivalent to 5000 Schmerbers: average pressure exerted by water in a downpour. Waterproofing of the jacket tested with a rain of 60 l of water/m²/h Waterproofing of the jacket - High collar - Injected plastic zip closure to prevent oxidation due to salt - Water-repellent components (water slides off the fabric) - Sealed seams - Central zip with internal flap to ensure optimal waterproofing Fabric breathability To know if a fabric is breathable, we measure its resistance to evaporation or RET (ISO 11092 standard). The lower the resistance, the more water vapour the fabric will let through and, therefore, the more breathable it will be. It is considered that if: RET < 9 = very breathable fabric; 9 < RET < 12 = breathable fabric. These are the breathability values of the Trek 500 jacket: > The most resistant fabric: RET < 12 (or 3621 g/m²/24 h, JIS1099A standard) > The lightest fabric: RET < 8 (or 2972 g/m²/2 Hood The hood is attached to the jacket and does not stow in the collar. Hood fully adjustable in depth, but not in length. For regulatory reasons, we cannot place an adjustment cord near the neck. Visor with tape to provide a good level of protection and better support. The high collar of the jacket effectively protects the wearer's neck. Pockets 2 zipped pockets on the front of the jacket to put your hands in or store items. The pockets are not waterproof! Front zip Zip along the entire length of the jacket with an internal flap and a piece to protect against wind and water. Soft fabric flap at the top of the collar to protect the chin. Information about the water-repellent effect The water-repellent effect of a fabric is its ability to let water slide off its surface without absorbing it. In this way, your jacket does not absorb water and remains light and breathable. The water-repellent effect is obtained by a treatment applied to the outer face of the fabric, but this property can be altered with use. How to wash the jacket? You can wash the garment on a synthetic programme at 30 or 40 °C with your usual detergent. Do not use fabric softener, as it could damage the original performance of the garment, and do not use bleach. You should also not fold the garment too much when putting it in the washing machine. And avoid overloading it. Very important: choose an abundant rinse or perform a double rinse to remove detergent residue.
