TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
FLEECE COMPONENT: INSULATION THANKS TO THE AIR
The mission of the fleece component is to trap air thanks to the volume created by its texture (and the brushing of the knit).
This air acts as a natural insulator, keeping the body warm.
This component has been laboratory-tested for a comfort temperature from 7 to 10°C without any additional jacket.
RESISTANCE GUARANTEED FOR 2 YEARS
We test the ageing of our hiking fleeces to guarantee their robustness. We guarantee:
- resistance to wear from backpacks and moving arms to delay the appearance of pilling which is specific to this material
- the solidity of the seams
- the resistance of the fleece material after several washes
- colour-fastness after washing, when exposed to UV or in contact with perspiration.
WHERE DO OUR FLEECES COME FROM?
Created in our international design centre at the foot of the Mont Blanc in France, this fleece is then manufactured and assembled by our suppliers in China and Vietnam.
We collaborate closely with these partners who have real expertise in the manufacture of our fleeces.
Thanks to this relationship of trust with our industrial partners, we can create high-quality technical products.
What is the water-repellent property of the component?
This fleece has a water-repellent treatment (upper chest, hood and shoulders) that lets the water slide off the fabric’s surface. Please note, this does not mean it is waterproof.
The water-repellent property prevents the fleece from getting wet too fast but will not keep you dry under steady rain.
For this, we recommend you add a waterproof jacket.
The water-repellency can be reactivated in the tumble dryer for 10 minutes at a low temperature.
