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.

Breathability

The main fabric used throughout the jacket, except at the sides, has a windproof membrane with a breathability of 2,814g/sqm for 24h (according to the JIS 1099 A standard).

Water repellent property of component (not to be confused with waterproofing)

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.
To reactivate it, follow the guide:
