Our hiking designers have developed this jacket for your short walks in the plains, forest or on the coast: extra protection in rainy weather. Our first price for waterproof hiking jackets! Lightweight, compact, waterproof and breathable, it’s an extra protective technical jacket which stores away in its pocket. This clothing was validated in a shower test using 60 L/sqm/hr of water for 1 hour. This test reproduces the average conditions of a shower. The fabric of this jacket is water-repellent, i.e. it makes water run off its surface without absorbing it. As a result, the fabric does not soak up water and stays light and breathable. A fabric is made water-repellent by applying a treatment to its outer surface. What's more, we have taped the main seams, those most exposed to the rain.
