Types of Outerwear:
IMPORTANT OUTERWEAR (Rain Jackets, Softshells, Fleece) RATINGS AND FEATURES
CHOOSE THE RIGHT OUTERWEAR FOR YOUR OUTDOOR ENDEAVORS
WATER RESISTANCE • The ability of a garment to
prevent water leakage. Measured by the amount of water
in millimeters (mm) which can rest on the fabric before it
seeps through, with a higher number meaning more water
resistance.
BREATHABILITY • The ability of a garment to allow water
vapor to escape from within. Measured in g/m2
– the higher this rating, the more breathable the fabric, which is better for
high-energy, long term excursions.
WATERPROOF-BREATHABLE MEMBRANE • A layer within
the fabric of some outerwear which prevents water droplets
from passing through from the outside, but allows water
vapor to escape from within.
DWR FINISH • A Durable Water Repellent finish on the face fabric of a piece of outerwear helps water bead up and roll off
the surface without saturating it.
SEAM SEALING/TAPING • Seams in jackets can be
sealed to prevent leakage. “Critically taped” means it has
been sealed at the neck, shoulders and chest, while “fully
taped” garments have every seam sealed.
INSULATION • Insulation is the key to keeping warm in cold
conditions. Down insulation is lighter, more compressible and
longer-lasting, while synthetic insulation is heavier, but less
expensive and insulates better when wet.
