Thermal comfort and windproof

The wind makes you feel considerably colder. With an outside temperature of 0°C and 20 km/h winds, it will feel like the temperature is -10°C. "Windproof" components fight the uncomfortable effects associated with this "freezing effect. They are very effective at reducing heat loss by creating a barrier against the wind.

This Softshell MT100 model is comfortable down to 4°C when active, worn as a second layer.

Water repellent property of component (not to be confused with waterproofing)

A fabric is water repellent when it allows water slide over its surface without seeping in. 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). Products for this are available in our stores. All Quechua Softshells have the benefits of water repellent treatment.

How to choose your size

Standard feminine cut. Inside volume enables you to wear a second layer underneath, such as a pullover or microfleece top, for added warmth when needed.
