WATERPROOFING WATER COLUMN TEST (known as the “Schmerber” test)

The strength of a fabric is measured in water pressure, expressed in mm water column (test based on the JIS 1092B standard). The greater the pressure, the more the fabric is waterproof.

With a waterproofing index of 15000 mm, our 500 jacket is highly waterproof.

A component with a waterproofing index of 15000 mm can withstand a pressure of 1.5 bar.

WATERPROOFING SHOWER TEST:

In our eyes, this test reflects real-life conditions the best because products designed with a waterproof fabric could let in water through the seams, flaps or zips.

In the test, the products are put under a shower in order to test their overall waterproofing capacity.

Our 500 jacket protects your from a heavy downpour (30cm of rain in 3 hours)

BREATHABILITY R.E.T TEST

The breathability is measured by the Water-Vapour Resistance (Ret) coefficient. It measures the a fabric's resistance to wicking away moisture. The lower this resistance (and therefore the coefficient), the more breathable the fabric is! (Test based on the ISO 11092 standard).

Our 500 jacket has an index of 9 and is therefore breathable and perfectly suited to a level of exertion
