TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
What is the cut of this softshell jacket?
Quite a close-fitting cut. Inner volume lets you wear a second lightweight layer underneath, such as a microfleece top.
Thermal comfort and windproof
The wind makes you feel considerably colder.
Where the outside temperature is 0°, with winds of 20 km, the temperature feels like -10°.
"Windproof" components fight the uncomfortable effects associated with this "freezing effect". Forming a barrier against the wind, they effectively reduce heat loss.
Protective details
- Drawstring tightening with toggles at the bottom of the jacket
- Tightening at the cuffs with Velcro tabs
- Adjustable hood
What is the water-repellent property of the component?
The water repellent property of a fabric is its ability to make water run off its surface without absorbing it.
This prevents the fabric from swelling, and keeps it lightweight and warm. Please note this protects you from light and short rain showers but not from severe bad weather. The padded jacket is not waterproof.
The fabric is made water-repellent by treating its outer surface, however this property may deteriorate with use.
We recommend that you restore it after each wash.
How to restore water-repellent properties?
The water-repellent treatment becomes less effective with time, washing and use.

TESTS AND WARRANTY
Test product
In November 2018, 8 trekkers (4 men and 4 women) and part of the Forclaz design team tested this jacket for 4 days in the southern French Alps (Lus La Croix Haute). You can expect wind, rain, a bit of snow, a bivouac... and a lot of fun! We were then able to make the final modifications and validate it for use for mountain trekking.
