Sizing information

Thermal comfort and windproof

The wind makes you feel considerably colder. With an outside temperature of 0°C and 20 km/h winds, it will feel like the temperature is -10°C. “Windproof” components fight the uncomfortable effects associated with this “freezing effect. They are very effective at reducing heat loss by creating a barrier against the wind.

Water-repellent property of component (not to be confused with waterproofing)

The water-repellent property of a fabric is its capacity to make water run off its surface without absorbing it. This prevents the fabric from soaking up water and keeps it lightweight and breathable. The fabric is made water-repellent by treating its outer surface, however this property may deteriorate with use. You will find out how to reactivate the water repellency of your softshell in our article “Maintaining, washing and repairing waterproof or water-repellent clothing” available on the Forclaz website.

Recommended additional product

To reactivate the water repellency, you can use the textile waterproofing liquid available in stores or on the website under reference 8554908,
It regenerates the water repellency of the fabric and optimises the performance of your garment throughout its life.
