Decathlon | KIDS' WATERPROOF HIKING OVER TROUSERS - MH100 7-15 YEARS - BLUE

Stored at the bottom of the bag, these rain trousers will fully protect yourchild in the event of a downpour. Worn with the MH500 jacket, they are acompact, waterproof and breathable staple item **Key benefits:** * Waterproof: 3 * Waterproof: 2-hour waterproof coating (5,000 Schmerber), fully taped seams * Breathability: Hydrophilic coating (RET=12): limits condensation inside the garment * Freedom of movement: Elastic waistband and loose fit to easily get them on over a pair of trousers * Lightweight: Only weighs 146 grams in 10-11 years**Technical information:**DESIGN THAT REDUCES THE CARBON FOOTPRINT: The resistance of a fabric ismeasured by the height of a water column in mm that can be supported by thefabric (test based on the JIS 1092 standard). The higher the water pressure,the more waterproof the fabric. We have improved this product with an eco-design approach. During the design phase, we optimised the placement of thedifferent parts of the jacket in the roll of material (minimal waste) in orderto reduce offcuts. ; OUR COMMITMENT TO CONSUME LESS WATER WITH THIS PRODUCT:Textile dyeing requires a lot of water but also produces waste water from thedye baths. To reduce our environmental impact, we use a mass pigmentationprocess that involves adding the colour pigments when the yarn itself isproduced. ; WATERPROOF FEATURE OF THE COMPONENT: This garment has beensubjected to a shower test using 60 litres of water/sqm/hour for 2 hours. Thistest reproduces the average conditions of a rain shower in the mountains.Acomponent with a 5,000 mm rating can withstand the pressure of a 5,000 mmcolumn of water (which is equivalent to a 2-hour-long rain shower).Waterproofing is expressed in schmerbers (for example: 5 000 schmerbers). ;COMPONENT BREATHABILITY: Component breathability is measured by its thermalevaporative resistance (RET). This is its capacity to let water vapourgenerated by the body during physical activity escape and therefore avoidwater accumulating on the skin. The lower the RET, the more breathable thefabric. RET ≤ 6: very breathable fabric RET ≤ 12: breathable fabric RET ≤ 20:little breathability Our product has a 12 RET rating ; COMPONENT'S WATERPROOFFEATURE: A fabric is water repellent when it allows water slide over itssurface without seeping in. This prevents the fabric from soaking up water andkeeps it lightweight, warm and breathable. The water repellent property isachieved by treating the fabric's exterior. This treatment must be renewedthroughout the garment's lifetime (with every or 3 washes).
