Fleece material: Insulation provided by air
The fleece component is designed to trap air in the space formed by its texture; this air acts as a natural insulator, keeping the body warm. It is the brushing of the knit fabric that traps the air.
Durability warranty of 2 years
We test the ageing of our hiking fleeces to guarantee their durability. We guarantee:
- the backpack's resistance to abrasion and arm movements in order to delay pilling, which is a feature of this material.
- the strength of the seams
- the durability of the fleece material after 3 washes (dimensional stability)
- colour-fastness after washing, against UV rays or in contact with perspiration.

Do not bleach
Tumble dry - low heat

TESTS AND WARRANTY
Test product
We carry out 2 types of thermal testing:
- either a test of the material of our fleeces.
- or on a thermal mannequin in a thermal chamber. We reproduce the conditions of temperature, wind (5 km/h) and humidity that you would encounter in the mountains walking at 5 km/h in our testing chambers.
These tests allow us to validate our design choices. So we can adapt our thermal insulation where you most need it.

Our design team is based at the foot of Mont Blanc, in Haute-Savoie (France). All year round, our designers create and develop products that are appealing, simple, and technologically advanced. These are then ruthlessly tested in the field, as we remain convinced that only through rigorous testing under real life conditions, like the ones you will be using them in, can we continue to provide you the best products.
