TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
Waterproofing
The fabric is constructed with a 3-layer membrane, resistant to a water pressure of 30,000 mm Schmerber (JIS standard). The higher the water pressure withstood by the fabric, the more waterproof it is.
The product has been tested using a rainstorm simulator, reproducing rainfall of 450 L/M²/h over 24 hours (3x8 hours)
Dungarees waterproofing
- The seams are 100% watertight.
- A large waterproof fold is positioned below the zipper to keep it dry and to facilitate water evacuation
- Large rip-tab fastenings are positioned at the lower legs so you can adjust the width of your dungarees.
- The dungarees go up to above the chest to guarantee good waterproofing.
Breathability
To find out whether a fabric is breathable, we measure its evaporative resistance, or RET, (test based on the ISO 11092 standard). It is its ability to allow the water vapour produced by the body during exercise to escape.
To find out whether a fabric is breathable, we test its evaporate resistance or RET (ISO 11092 standard). The lower the fabric’s resistance, the more moisture is evaporated, and therefore the higher the fabric’s breathability.
This product’s RET is 25.
Foam reinforcements
The dungarees have foam reinforcements on the knees and buttocks to provide you with added comfort during manoeuvres. The foam in the buttocks can be removed.
Secure attachment in the cargo pocket (thigh).
Attach your equipment (knife, camera, shackle key, etc.) to the inside of your pocket, to avoid losing it at sea! A loop has been provided for this in the cargo pocket on the right leg.
Weight
The dungarees weigh 1100 grams in Size L.
What is water repellency and how to maintain it
The fabric and fastenings are water-repellent.
A fabric is water-repellent when water slides off the surface without seeping in.
It won’t become waterlogged and remains lightweight and breathable. The water-repellent properties are achieved with a treatment (DWR) applied to the external side of the fabric, but these properties can be altered.
The water-repellent properties can be reactivated by putting the jacket (once it has been air-dried) in a dryer for 10 minutes at the lowest temperature.
How to wash your dungarees
After use, rinse the jacket thoroughly with clean water to remove any salt. Machine wash about once a year to prevent the rip-tabs from damaging the fabric during washing.
Dry in a well-ventilated place. Caution: never dry your dungarees directly on a radiator.
If the water repellency is less effective, you can occasionally tumble dry it at low temperature for 10 minutes to reactivate the water repellency.
The way to dry your dungarees.
A fabric loop allows you to hook your dungarees onto a hook or coat stand to dry.
