TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
WARMTH
This jacket is designed with wadding.
The wadding is a synthetic component based on a polyester fibre which traps a large quantity of air.
Given the insulating properties of air, the wadding provides protection against the cold.
How to dress your kid for their cross-country ski outings?
We recommend the 3-layer technique.
Layer 1: second skin (technical base layer) wicks away moisture from the body to keep your skin dry.
Layer 2: insulating (t-shirt, fleece) layer that provides warmth and wicks away moisture outwards.
Layer 3: outer protective (jacket) layer that protects from the weather conditions: wind, snow and cold.
Adjust the number of layers to the level of your physical effort and the weather, and make sure that the clothing is breathable.
Why should you protect yourself from the wind?
Did you know that the wind makes you feel colder?
With an outside temperature of 0°C and 20 km/h winds, it will feel like the temperature is -10°.
So-called "windproof" components help to reduce this windchill by blocking the air flow resulting from the true wind and the forward motion of your sporting activity.

MaterialRecycled polyester
Product is made of 70% recycled polyester
We have incorporated recycled polyester into this product (instead of conventional polyester, which is derived from petrochemical plastic). What does this mean? In addition to being technical, this product has been designed taking into account its environmental impact: using recycled polyester means recovering and transforming products destined to be thrown away, such as production offcuts or plastic bottles, instead of using new oil resources.

This product is made with recycled polyamide (instead of conventional polyamide). Objective: to use materials from production scraps or products destined to be thrown away, rather than using new oil resources. This is done to reduce the environmental impact of this product without compromising the technical qualities!
