Easy dressing

Large full length front zip over the entire garment: it is put on like a jacket.

Breathability

Hydrophilic coating (RET=8): reduces condensation in the garment.

The ends of the sleeves are cuffed with rip-tabs that prevent water from entering the sleeves.

Zip fastening. The mesh surface prevents the fabric from being ruined if the garment is folded up while still wet. Sizes: L25 x H23 x D5 cm.

Pocket system

2 openings for easy access to the jacket or trouser pockets.

Safety

Retro-reflective stripe on the back for greater visibility in the event of night walking on roadsides.

Component waterproofing

We measure a fabric's resistance to water pressure, expressed in terms of the height of a water column in mm (based on the ISO 811 standard). The higher the water pressure, the more waterproof the fabric. Components with a 5,000 mm rating can withstand the pressure of a 5,000 mm column of water (which is equivalent to a storm lasting 3 hours).

Waterproofing of the garment

Technologies: this garment has been validated in a shower test under 30 cm rain for 3 hours. This test reproduces the average conditions of a mountain storm.

Breathable garment

To assess the breathability of the fabric, the evaporative resistance, RET (test based on the ISO 11092 standard), is measured. The lower the fabric's resistance, the more water vapour generated by physical activity can escape, and the higher the fabric's breathability. For example:
RET < 9 = extremely breathable fabric
9 < RET < 12 = very breathable fabric
12 < RET < 20 = breathable fabric
RET > 20 = little or no breathability.
RET of this cape = 8

Component water resistance

A fabric is water repellent when it allows water slide over its surface without seeping in. This prevents the fabric from soaking up water and keeps it lightweight, warm and breathable. The water repellent property is achieved by treating the fabric's exterior. This treatment needs to be renewed throughout the lifetime of the garment (every 3 washes).
All Quechua ponchos and capes have a water-repellent treatment.
