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

A fabric is water repellent when it allows water slide over its surface without seeping in. This prevents the fabric from swelling, and keeps it lightweight and warm. The water repellent property is achieved by treating the fabric's exterior. This treatment must be renewed throughout the garment's lifespan (recommended after each wash). Products are available for this purpose in our stores.

What is a PFC-free water-repellent treatment?

Our water repellent treatment contains no PFCs (perfluorocarbons), i.e. PFC-Free. PFCs are used to make fabric water-repellent, however they are toxic to the environment and people. By replacing the PFCs with other technologies that we are developing to enable the same level of performance, we are helping to reduce this environmental impact.

Valuable advice for improving the durability of your down jacket!

In general, do not wash a down jacket too frequently because each wash decreases its thermal properties.

HOW TO REPAIR YOUR PADDED JACKET IF IT HAS A TEAR?

While you’re trekking, your padded jacket could get a tear in it, but the good news is that it can be repaired! You can either mend it or apply a heat-bonded patch so that the tear doesn't get any bigger and the synthetic fibres escape. Don't you feel at ease carrying out this repair yourself? Don't worry! Some of our in-store Decathlon workshops offer a repair service for your padded jackets.
