Kids’ Waterproof Hiking Jacket - MH100 Zip - Aged 2-6

Component waterproofing

The resistance of a fabric is measured by the height of a water column in mm that can be supported by the fabric (test based on the JIS 1092 standard)The higher the water pressure, the more wtp the fabricThis clothing was validated in a shower test using 60 L/sqm/hr of water for 1hThis test reproduces the average conditions of a rain shower in the mountains.

A component with a 5,000 mm rating can withstand the pressure of a 5,000 mm column of water (which is equivalent to a 1h-long rain shower).

Component breathability

Component breathability is measured by its thermal evaporative resistance (RET).

This is its capacity to let water vapour generated by the body during physical activity escape and therefore avoid water accumulating on the skin.

The lower the RET, the more breathable the fabric.



RET ≤ 6: very breathable fabric

RET ≤ 12: breathable fabric

RET ≤ 20: little breathability



Our product has a 12 RET rating
