We often mistakenly use the terms waterproof and water repellent as synonyms. However, there are some differences that we must take into account.
In the textile industry, we understand as waterproof those garments that are impenetrable to water under any weather condition. However, a garment that repels water is one that makes the water "slide" off the surface without being absorbed.
The curious thing is that for a fabric to be waterproof it is necessary to carry out a chemical treatment applied to the outer material, which is generally not very friendly to the environment.
That is why we are committed to not using this type of treatment and have manufactured our own waterproof garments. Our Coachers (in orange or black ) They are a modern evolution of a classic that never goes unnoticed. As part of our commitment to sustainability and our fidelity to the environment, we have produced them from recycled plastic bottles . It is also a totally versatile garment that acts as a windbreaker, is water repellent and has an extra soft touch.
We never know how to choose our favourite...
Which is yours? We read you!
