BREATHABILITY

RET <15: average 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.

POCKET

The large gusset pocket on the right thigh has a letterbox fastening and a storm cord which allows you to keep your equipment safe.

FEATURES

The waist is adjustable with semi-elasticated rip-tabs. The overtrousers also have an elasticated cord under the chest which adjusts with a toggle to ensure excellent hold.

The knee, seat, and heel reinforcements are made of an abrasion- and wear-resistant component. They are equipped with removable articulated foam pads for added protection of the sailor's knees and seat.

HOW TO REACTIVATE THE ANORAK'S WATER REPELLENCY step 1: before washing

Close all zips and flaps and remove any parts of the clothing that cannot be washed. Also remember to loosen the straps and elastic parts and empty the pockets.

Then turn the clothing inside out to wash it.

HOW TO REACTIVATE THE ANORAK'S WATER REPELLENCY step 2: washing

You can wash your jacket on a synthetic cycle at 30° or 40°C with your usual detergent. Do not use fabric conditioner, which could damage the existing performance of the garment, or bleach.



Also take care not to bend your jacket too much when you place it in the washing machine and do not overload your machine.



Very important: select a thorough rinse or double rinse to completely remove all detergent residue.

HOW TO REACTIVATE THE ANORAK'S WATER REPELLENCY Step 3: Drying

Drying is a crucial phase in reactivating the water repellent treatment.

We recommend that you lay your jacket flat on a clothes rack and leave it out to dry in the open. Caution: never dry your jacket directly on a radiator.



Then place them in the tumble dryer on a short synthetics cycle, i.e. 10 to 15 minutes, before turning it back the right way round. Caution: do not over-dry the garment.

HOW TO REACTIVATE THE ANORAK'S WATER REPELLENCY

If, despite this procedure of washing and thorough rinsing followed by gentle drying in a tumble dryer, the drops of water no longer run off the surface of your jacket, we recommend that you "re-waterproof" it using a waterproofing spray.
