YT-79562 – Work jacket STRATUS S. L

Features:

Softshell jacket with three pockets with waterproof zippers and a detachable hood. The material is a modern three-layer polyester fabric with added elastic material with a special microstructure that blocks water droplets from penetrating from outside while allowing sweat to evaporate outward as water vapour. The jacket retains body heat perfectly with comfortable air circulation and will successfully replace a heavy wool jumper that is hard to breathe in. The laminated middle layer made of thermoplastic polyurethane provides water resistance even in moderate rain.

Basic data

Material: 96% polyester, 4% elastane

Material weight: 320 g/m²

Work pocket organisation: waterproof zipper on the left chest, two pockets with waterproof zippers at waist level. (The material withstands the pressure of an 8 m water column – 8000 mm.)

Breathability 3000 MVP (about 3000 g of water/sweat evaporates from 1 m² of material within 24 hours)

Fastening with waterproof zipper with an additional flap, hem adjustment with a cord and lock. Combines comfort proven by ski clothing users with work clothing functionality and meets the requirements of Regulation (EU) 2016/425 for work clothing and category.

The water resistance parameter most often used in ski clothing expresses the resistance of 1 m² of material to the pressure of a water column in millimetres.

0 – 1500 mm – almost zero water resistance, work in dry conditions

1500 – 5000 mm – water resistance for light rain and fine snow

5000 – 10,000 mm – water resistance for moderate rain and snow

10,000 – 15,000 mm – water resistance for heavy rain and snow without strong wind

Breathability, otherwise known as moisture vapour permeability, is the ability of the material to channel sweat outside the material as vapour. The higher the parameter, the more effective the air circulation. Values between 2000 and 5000 MVP are a compromise between retaining body heat and comfort during moderate physical activity, e.g. when working on a construction site.
