water column

The water-repellent capacity of clothing is often described in the form of millimeters of water column. The water column says something about the amount of water pressure a substance can have per square centimeter before it starts to leak. This jacket has a water column of 20,000 mm. This means that the substance leaks through when it is under pressure from 20 meters of water. Hiking with a daypack is therefore no problem at all with the Downpour Plus 2.0 Jacket!

MVTR

The breathability of clothing is expressed in g/m²/24 h with the Moisture Vapor Transmission Rate (MVTR). The following applies: the higher the MVTR value, the better the breathability. This jacket has a breathability of 20,000 g/m². This means that one square meter of this substance is 20,000 grams in 24 hours.

Material

Polyamide, also known as nylon, is a synthetic material made from petroleum. Polyamide is a strong fabric that does not tear and crease easily. It is light, elastic, easy to fold and dries quickly. A disadvantage of polyamide is that it does not absorb moisture well. In addition, like many other materials, polyamide is harmful to the environment. It is not biodegradable and contributes to the plastic soup in the ocean. However, polyamide can be recycled very well. The use of recycled polyamide reduces both waste and the dependence on petroleum as a source. Recycled polyamide is therefore a sustainable and environmentally friendly alternative.
