waterproof

Waterproof coating 1 hour (5,000 Schmerbers), waterproof main seams.

lightweight

Weighs only 320g in size 10 years.

breathability

Hydrophilic coating (RET=12): reduces condensation in the garment.

Component waterproofing

The resistance of a fabric is measured by the pressure of a water column in mm that can be supported by the fabric (test based on the JIS 1092 Standard). The higher the water pressure, the more waterproof the fabric.

Windproof effect

Coating applied to the fabric makes it waterproof and windproof. Waterproof fabric has the necessary technical characteristics to be considered windproof. Protection from the wind is critical, as whether playing sports or at rest, wind can chill the body significantly.

Component breathability

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 breathability

Our product has a 12 RET rating

COMPONENT DURABILITY

Resistance to wear and abrasion test: for example, we check that our fleeces do not pill using tests conducted in laboratories. Colour retention test: the colour fastness is verified to ensure that the colours do not bleed when coming into contact with saliva. Ageing test: repeated washing should not affect the fabric's properties, behaviour, thickness or appearance.

Technical details:

Elasticated cuffs. Inner lining mesh, ventilated back. Media pocket with headphone feed.

Care

1/ Machine wash (30°C): fasten rip-tabs and use mild detergent. Wash jackets and trousers inside out. Loosen straps and elastics. 2/ Avoid folding the garment too much in the washing machine: this can damage it. 3/ Do not mix clothing styles and colours. 4/ Don't use bleach. 5/ Choose a full rinse and gentle spin cycle. 6/ Drying option: Either line or tumble dry (low temperature, short cycle).

Steam iron recommended.

Do not use fabric softener.

Wash with zip closed.

Approved by

To meet your requirements, Quechua products are tested in the mountains in conditions you will encounter during your hikes.
Sarah, our Field Test Engineer, as well as a panel of child testers, test the products throughout their development until they’re offered for sale.

Storage advice

Store on a hanger or folded in a clean and dry place.

Test

Our design team is based at the foot of Mont Blanc, in Haute-Savoie (France). All year round, we create and develop products that are beautiful, simple and technologically advanced. These are then ruthlessly tested in the field, as we remain convinced that only through rigorous testing under real world conditions, like the ones you will be using them in, can we continue to provide you with better products than ever.
