Transform yourself in seconds! ; HOW IS THE WATERPROOFING OF THIS PONCHOTESTED?: This poncho is waterproof thanks to the durability and coating of itsfabric and its sealed seams. The resistance of a fabric to water pressure isexpressed in mm of a water jet (test based on standard ISO 811). Our materialis resistant to the pressure from 2,000 mm of water. The finished product isapproved in a shower test in the lab, where we recreate the conditions of anaverage downpour: 60 L water per square metre per hour for 2 hours. ;COMPONENT BREATHABILITY: Hydrophilic coating (RET = 12): limits condensationinside the garment. To see whether a fabric is breathable, we test itsevaporative resistance or RET (based on the ISO 11092 standard). The lower itsresistance, the more the fabric lets water vapour produced by the body escape,and the more breathable it is. For example: RET < 9 = extremely breathablefabric. 9 < RET < 12 = highly breathable fabric. 12 < RET < 20 = breathablefabric. RET > 20 = slightly or not breathable fabric. ; Eco-Design: Dyeing inthe mass is used to dye the fibres during the production of the fabric toreduce the environmental impact of the dyeing. It also reduces waterconsumption and pollution.
