UNDERSTANDING WATERPROOFNESS & BREATHABILITY

Protection levels for different conditions.

Waterproofness indicates how effectively a fabric prevents water from penetrating through the material. Breathability measures how efficiently excess heat and moisture can escape from inside the garment during activity. The right performance level depends on how and where the product is used. Higher values provide increased protection and comfort during prolonged exposure to rain, snow and high-intensity activities.
