Women's Mountain Trekking Padded Jacket with Hood - MT100 -5°C

This padded jacket has been certified for a comfort temperature of -5°C during a standardised test in a thermal chamber. The model is wearing a synthetic long-sleeved t-shirt and a light fleece underneath. It works with a simulated 5 km/h wind. In our heat comparison tool, it represents 2 stars.

- Inside flap under the zip that protects from the wind.- Elasticised cuffs.- Flap at the top of the collar to protect the chin.- Tightening with an elastic cord and toggle at the hem.- Hood with elasticated bias binding.

We use 100% polyester wadding weighing 125 g/sqm in the body section and 100 g/sqm in the sleeves and hood. The wadding is made from silicone-coated spiral fibres that make it highly compressible and highly durable. Despite its low thickness, it has high insulation properties thanks to the air trapped inside, and remains lightweight. It retains its warmth even when wet.

This polyamide canvas uses 20 denier threads (measurement unit of the thread) and resists up to 20,000 abrasion cycles. Durability is calculated using the Martindale test, Standard 12 947-2. This test is to rub the jacket’s material against another material to observe how the product resists wear.Outer: 100% polyamide fabric 39g/sqm, 20 denierLining: 100% polyester fabric 35g/sqm, mix of 15 to 20 denier threads

The water-repellent property of a fabric is its capacity to make water run off its surface without absorbing it. This prevents the fabric from swelling, and keeps it lightweight and warm. The water repellent property is achieved by treating the fabric's exterior. This treatment must be renewed throughout the garment's lifespan (recommended after each wash). Water repellent treatment products are available in our stores.

Once you have cleaned your padded jacket, we recommend you use a water-repellent reactivator spray to preserve the hydrophobic properties of the outer fabric. This renews the fabric’s water repellent properties and optimises performance throughout the lifespan of your garment. You will find it in stores and on our website by entering the code 8554908

In general, do not wash a down jacket too frequently because each wash decreases its thermal properties.

A tear on a padded jacket may happen when trekking. The good news is that it can be repaired! You can either mend it or apply a heat-bonded patch so that the tear doesn't get any bigger and the synthetic fibres escape. Don't you feel at ease carrying out this repair yourself? Don't worry! Our in-store Decathlon workshops offer a repair service for your padded jackets.

The product's environmental impact is calculated over its entire life cycle using various indicators. A score from A to E is given to help you easily identify the most eco-friendly products by comparing products of the same type (T-shirts, trousers, backpacks, etc.) Decathlon is a voluntary supporter of this environmentally-friendly labelling approach.
