How is the waterproofness of the NH100 rain jacket measured?
The resistance of a fabric is measured by the height of a water column in mm that can be supported by the fabric (test based on the JIS 1092 standard). The higher the water pressure, the more waterproof the fabric. This waterproof jacket resists the pressure of 5000 mm of water (equivalent to a rain shower lasting 1h).
To approve this, the NH100 waterproof jacket was placed in a shower for 1h, under 60L of water/m²/h. This test reproduces the average conditions of a rain shower in the mountains

TESTS AND WARRANTY
Test product
Our Decathlon Sportslab laboratory, based in Lille, also contributes to the innovation and development of our Quechua products.
It brings together 4 themes, each with their own area and technological tools:
- Body shape (using 3d analysis);
- Movement sciences;
- Thermal comfort (with its four climatic chambers);
- Behavioural and sensory sciences.
Agree by
To meet your requirements, Quechua products are tested in the mountains in conditions you will encounter during your hikes.
Sarah, our Field Test Engineer, as well as a panel of child testers, test the products throughout their development until they’re offered for sale.
