Fleece component: insulation thanks to air
The fleece component is designed to trap air in the space formed by its texture; This air acts as a natural insulator, keeping the body warm.It is the brushing of the knit fabric that traps the air.
Component water resistance
A fabric's water repellent property is its capacity to make water run off its surface without seeping in. This prevents the fabric from soaking up water and keeps it lightweight, warm and breathable. The water-repellent property is obtained by applying a PFC-free treatment to the outer surface of the fabric. This treatment must be renewed throughout the garment's lifespan (recommended after each wash). Products are available for this purpose in our stores.

TESTS AND WARRANTY
Test product
We carry out 2 types of thermal testing:
- a test of the trousers’ material.
- a test on a thermal dummy in a thermal chamber.
We reproduce the temperature, wind (5 km/h) and humidity conditions that you would encounter in the mountains walking at 5 km/h.
These tests validate our design choices and we then adapt the thermal insulation where you need it most.
