TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
Cut
This jacket has a cut that fits all shapes while still looking very feminine. A warm layer such as a fleece or light sweater can be worn underneath. Inner lining can also provide more comfort.
You can choose your usual size, or a size above if you don't want it to be worn fitted.
Hood
The hood is removable thanks to press studs. It can be adjusted in height using an elasticated cord and adjusted in depth thanks to a Velcro tab located at the back of the hood.
CONSTRUCTION OF THE JACKET
This jacket is constructed with 2 coated layers, including a mesh lining (large mesh lining)
‘2 layers’ means there is the outer fabric and the lining.
A coating is applied to the inside of the fabric, it is similar to a resin that makes the component waterproof, while remaining breathable. The inner lining of the jacket has the role of protecting this coating
WATERPROOFNESS TEST
Waterproofing is measured by a fabric’s resistance to water pressure expressed in mm of water column (JIS 1092 standard). The higher the water pressure, the more waterproof the fabric.
The component of this product has a waterproof rating of 5000 mm, i.e. it can withstand the pressure exerted by a 5000 mm column of water.
This is also equivalent to 5 000 Schmerbers.
BREATHABILITY TEST
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
HOW TO RESTORE THE WATER-REPELLENT PROPERTIES OF MY JACKET?
The water-repellent property of a fabric is its capacity to make water run off its surface without absorbing it. This prevents the fabric from soaking up water and keeps it lightweight and breathable. The fabric is made water-repellent by treating its outer surface, however this property may deteriorate with use.

TESTS AND WARRANTY
Test product
Our Decathlon Sportslab laboratory, based in Lille, also contributes to the innovation and development of our Quechua products. It brings together 4 themes, each with their own area and technological tools: Morphology (especially thanks to the 3D analysis) Movement sciences Thermal comfort (with its four climatic chambers) Behavioural and sensory sciences + we describe the specific aspects of the test related to the product (e.g. shower, wind tunnel, etc.)
Warranty
2 Years
Agree by
To meet your requirements, Quechua products are tested in the mountains in conditions you will encounter during your hikes. Our teams, as well as a tester panel (made up of partners, ambassadors and customers), test products throughout their development until they go to market.

ProcessDope dyed
100% of the fabric color is made by dyeing the yarn at the source
Dyeing textiles requires lots of water but also leads to lots of water waste generated in dyeing vats. To reduce this environmental impact, we choose solution dyeing, which integrates colour pigments when manufacturing the thread.
