TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
RESISTANT TO RUBBING
To allow you to ride along the trails without worrying about branches and leaves, our design team selected a fabric with a tight weave.
The result? An authentic rainproof mountain biking jacket that can deal with all sorts of rubbing during your ride (hydration pack straps, branches, etc.)
What is a waterproof fabric?
Waterproofing is a fabric's ability to prevent rain water from passing through. A fabric's waterproofing is determined by measuring its resistance to the pressure exerted by a water column, measured in mm (test based on ISO 811 standard). The higher the pressure, the more waterproof the fabric. This fabric used is waterproof to 2000 mm, meaning that it resists the pressure of a 2000 mm water column (which is about the same as a 2-hour downpour).
Is this fabric breathable?
To determine whether a fabric is breathable, we measure its evaporative resistance (test based on standard ISO 11092).
The fabric we have used has a breathability rating (RET) of 8 on a scale out of 40

The lower the rating, the more the fabric lets through the water vapour generated by your body during exercise
