TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
Air to insulate you from the cold
The fleece component is designed to trap air, thanks to its unique texture and brushed knit. It provides exceptional insulation to keep your body warm. Tested in the laboratory, this fleece guarantees optimal comfort between 7 and 10°C, without an additional jacket.
HOW IS WARMTH MEASURED?
This fleece has been subjected to thermal tests on its fleece fabric and in a climate chamber with a mannequin. These tests imitate mountain conditions to help us validate our design choices.
A breathable fleece: What are the benefits?
Our fleece jacket, made with breathable fabric, keeps you comfortable even during intense activity. Thanks to its ability to wick away moisture from perspiration, it keeps you dry and comfortable throughout your adventures.
What is the RET index?
The breathability of a fabric is measured by its evaporative resistance RET (ISO 11092 standard): The lower it is, the more breathable the fabric. Examples: RET< 9 (very breathable), 9 < RET < 12 (breathable), RET > 20 (low breathability).
This fleece has a RET index of 9.
Why elastane?
To ensure optimal comfort on your hikes, it’s essential you enjoy complete freedom of movement. That’s why we added elastane to the composition of this fleece. So you enjoy unrivalled freedom of movement to walk unhindered.
A lightweight, practical jacket
This ultra-practical jacket has two zip pockets and one zipped chest pocket. This means you can store your belongings safely.
It’s also ultra-lightweight. Ideal for putting in your bag and forgetting it’s there.
Resistance tested?
To guarantee their quality, our products undergo rigorous tests. We check their resistance to pilling, discolouration and repeated washing. The resistance to wear is measured using the Martindale test that subjects a sample of fabric to repeated friction. 2-year guarantee.
How to look after your fleece?
To wash your fleece without damaging it, select a 30° maximum programme and turn it inside out before machine washing. Set the spin speed to a maximum of 1000 rpm and avoid tumble drying to protect the fabric.
What sizes are available?
This fleece is available from S to 3 XL.
