QUECHUA Women’s windproof and water-repellent hiking jacket NH100 1/2 Zip | Jacket

Our hiking designers have designed this spare jacket to protect you from light rain during your country walks.

Resistant performance of your jacket

To maintain a durable 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 20cm by going back and forth twice- or two passes with an iron on the delicate setting without the steam function.

Fabric water-repellency

In line with its water-repellent claim, this jacket has been designed with a coated waterproof component (JIS 1092 standard): this component resists 5,000mm H2O (Schmerbers) before washing (equivalent to the pressure exerted by a 5m column of water).

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 fabricRET ≤ 12: breathable fabricRET ≤ 20: little or no breathability

Choose your waterproof jacket according to your sports effort

Rain jacket designed for a 2h hike at a pace of 5 km/h max., without elevation gain.During sports activity, the extent to which we perspire depends on the intensity/duration of the physical effort.If the breathability of the fabric is not adapted to your type of physical activity, the perspiration vapour condenses inside the jacket.You will feel damp inside:It is not rain coming through but perspiration vapour condensing.Choose a rain jacket according to your type of physical activity.
