Trekking Waterproof Hat MT900 - dark grey

Waterproofing

How does Decathlon measure waterproofing?

At Decathlon, we don't just consider the intrinsic quality of the component (in this instance, a fabric with a 20,000 Schmerbers rating) but we also test the waterproof qualities of the finished product in an environmental chamber reproducing different precipitation levels.

This hat will protect you from a 12 cm rain shower for 2 hours, or 60 L of water per hour and per square metre:quite a downpour!

What makes ripstop fabric more durable?

The ripstop fabric is a mesh-type fabric. The warp and weft design helps ensure durability and prevent potential tears.
