WATERPROOFING
WATER COLUMN TEST (known as the “Schmerber” test)
The strength of a fabric is measured in water pressure, expressed in mm water column (test based on the JIS 1092B standard). The greater the pressure, the more the fabric is waterproof.
With waterproofing of 20,000 mm, our jacket 500 boasts a high level of waterproofing
A component with waterproofing of 20,000 mm can withstand a pressure of 2.0 bar.

SHOWER TEST
In our eyes, this test reflects real-life conditions the best because products designed with a waterproof fabric could let in water through the seams, flaps or zips.
In the test, the products are put under a shower in order to test their overall waterproofing capacity.
Our 500 poncho protects you from a heavy downpour (12Â cm of rain in 2Â hours)
