Good waterproofing (10,000 mm schmerber), tested in real-life conditions.

This jacket has been tested in a special shower that reproduces the conditions of the ski resorts, and in the field for several days in different weather conditions.
Water repellent jacket, like all quechua jackets.
A fabric's water-repellent property is its ability to let water slide off its surface without soaking in. The fabric doesn’t soak up water and so remains lightweight, breathable and warm. It is made from a treatment on the outside of the fabric, which must be renewed (every 3 washes).
A jacket that provides just the right amount of warmth for a day on the slopes.
In addition to the jacket's padding, the waterproof zips, snow skirt, collar, adjustable hood and adjustable cuffs provide extra insulation from the cold.
A breathable jacket to evacuate heat during periods of exertion.
The RET, or the evaporative resistance of the material (ISO 11092 standard), is 11. The lower this rating, the more water vapour generated by the body evaporates. RET < 9 = extremely breathable 9 < RET < 12 = very breathable 12 < RET < 20 = breathableRET > 20 = little or no breathability.
The 500 jacket is designed with a membrane component.
This is a very thin polyurethane film that makes the material waterproof while remaining breathable. More flexible, lightweight, resistant and often more breathable than coating, which is less expensive and requires a protective lining, similar to paint applied to the inside of the fabric.

How should you dress under your ski jacket?
When skiing, we talk about the three-layer rule: A first thermal layer (ski base layer), a second layer (fleece or down jacket) and a third layer, your jacket. Adapt the second layer to suit the conditions, or take along a bag so you can take it off during the day.
Product Testing
All Quechua products are laboratory-tested, as well as tested in the real-life conditions for which they were designed: in the snow, in the cold, and in all possible conditions you may come across when skiing and snowboarding.
