ΤΕΧΝΙΚΕΣ ΠΛΗΡΟΦΟΡΙΕΣ
FABRIC WATERPROOFING
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.
The RC500 jacket's waterproofing stats: 8,000 mm before washing, 5,000 mm after 5 washes.
JACKET WATERPROOFING
It's not just the fabric that's important for the product's waterproofing; the construction is just as big a deal. The seams on the RC500 are sealed and we have chosen to use the waterproof YKK AquaGuard® zipper.
FABRIC BREATHABILITY (RET)
To determine a fabric's breathability we measure its evaporative resistance or RET (based on standard ISO11092). The lower its resistance, the more it lets water vapor produced by the body escape, therefore the more breathable it is.
• RET <6: Extremely breathable, suitable for most intense workouts
• RET 6 to 12: Very breathable, designed for moderate exercise
• RET 12 to 20: Moderately breathable, not enough for exercise
• RET >20: little breathability, unsuitable for exercise
MEMBRANE OR COATING?
The RC500 jacket's fabric has a membrane.
The membrane is a type of very thin micro-perforated plastic film (polyurethane) that makes the fabric both waterproof and breathable. It is also very supple, lighter, more durable and more breathable than a fabric with a coating.
A coating is like a layer of paint on the underside of the fabric to make it waterproof. It costs less than a membrane, and requires a lining to protect it.
FOLD-UP FLAP
As you know, if the road is wet, it can be very unpleasant getting your shorts covered in spray from the rear wheel. To solve this problem, we've equipped the RC500 jacket with a retractable flap at the base of the back. It can be discreetly folded into the back of the jacket, and is very practical when needed.
It goes without saying that adding a mudguard to the rear of your bike adds even more protection against splashes.
CUT
CLASSIC FIT: Fitted and comfortable. This timeless cut is perfect for your longer bike rides, whether in the saddle or having a break.
This fit is tighter than our "Relaxed Fit," but not as tight as our "Pro Fit."

Test product
Our team of designers and cycling enthusiasts is based in Lille, in northern France, not far from Flanders and its legendary cycling routes. To get this rainproof jacket just right, we tested it all over Flanders throughout the winter: we believe that only by subjecting our products to real world conditions, like the ones you experience on your bike, can we continuously improve them.
