Outdoor  jacket

Functional fabrics

 

 

Wind proof, waterproof, stain proof, reflective strip, multiple pockets, soft shell+warm (sweat wicking) underwear, hard shell+fleece in rainy days, hard shell+soft shell in windy days, soft shell or skin coat in spring and summer

 

The choice of outdoor jacket

 

Hard shell ｜ has more functions than comfort, good water resistance and poor air permeability; Soft shell ｜ Comfort is more than function, with good air permeability and slightly poor water resistance; Three in one ｜ Combination of hard shell and soft shell or fleece

 

 

Hard shell jacket

 

 

The hard shell jacket is more used in extreme environments, such as snow mountains and grasslands. It usually has a good performance. It has very strong rain and snow proof, wind proof, tear proof and breathable functions. However, the manufacturing process is much more complicated, from polystyrene and PVC raincoats to breathable films and other techniques

 

Soft shell jacket

 

 

Soft shell jacket is a kind of clothing between fleece jacket and jacket. It adds a waterproof layer on the warm and windproof fabric, which has the performance of waterproof and windproof. The fleece fabric used inside makes it warm and breathable. Suitable for travel or daily wear in spring and autumn, windproof and warm.

 

 

Three layers jacket

 

 

In fact, it is also a kind of soft shell jacket. In design, it adopts a double-layer structure. The fleece jacket is especially suitable for activities in dry but windy areas with large temperature difference. For example, when traveling in the western region of China, it is a good choice to wear fleece jackets

Fleece fabric is a new type of fabric. Brushed fabric has fine fiber size and small bending modulus, so its fabric has excellent softness. The advantages of fleece fabric are warmth retention and light weight. The process of fleece fabric is to obtain the fabric with fleece on the surface after being woven into the fabric and then combed after sanding, which is generally pure polyester and polyester cotton. Pure cotton is rare, because pure cotton is not easy to pile. The fleece used outdoors can roughly achieve the following functions: warmth preservation, windproof, light weight, quick drying, abrasion resistance, extension, easy compression, easy care, anti-static, anti splash, etc.

Waterproof, breathable, windproof and warm

 

 

Outdoor jacket fabric

 

It provides multiple protection in terms of functionality. It is made of the fabric of the Teflon three proof assault suit, with a fleece liner and reflective stripes

 

 

The fabric has the properties of oil repellency, water repellency and water pressure resistance. Nylon and polyester waterproof and breathable fabrics refer to fabrics that can not only prevent rain and wind, but also sweat, breathable and comfortable to wear. During the wearing process, water will not saturate the fabric under certain pressure, while sweat emitted by the human body can pass through the fabric or be transmitted to the outside in the form of water vapor, without condensation and accumulation between the human body surface and the fabric, so as to keep wearing dry and warm. The fabric feels soft, environmentally friendly and healthy, is not easy to change color, and is breathable, breathable and waterproof. In addition, its strength, fastness, color and style are almost the same as those of the original fabric, and it is comfortable to wear

 

Structure of outdoor jacket

 

The jacket generally has four layers of structure: waterproof coating (DWR), surface fabric (mixture of synthetic materials and elastic materials), waterproof breathable film (E-PTFE), and inner fabric (wear-resistant material or fleece)

 

Waterproof coating

 

 

DWR waterproof coating is a water repellent coating that plays a lotus leaf effect on the outer layer of the waterproof jacket. Inside and outside are waterproof membranes that protect the middle layer of the fabric, and in the middle are plastic waterproof membranes with small holes, which are moisture permeable and waterproof to a certain extent

 

Surface fabric

 

 

It is one of the necessary equipment for outdoor sports. Generally, it is windproof and warm, heat gathering and temperature locking. COOLMAX: It is a high-tech moisture absorption and breathable polyester fiber of DuPont. Advantages: It can export the heat and moisture generated by the body, regulate the body temperature, and keep you cool; GORE-TEX: It breaks through the disadvantage that ordinary waterproof fabrics cannot be breathable. Advantages: easy to clean, waterproof, windproof and breathable, with excellent thermal insulation performance; PU coating: advantages: soft and elastic coating; The coating has good strength and can be used for very thin coating; The coating is porous, with moisture permeability and air permeability; Wear resistant, moisture resistant, dry cleaning resistant

 

Waterproof breathable membrane PTFE

 

 

Its waterproof and breathable function is to compound a layer of microporous membrane on the outer material of the clothing. The microporous membrane is smaller than the water drop molecule and larger than the gas molecule, so it can block the rain while volatilizing its own sweat

 

Lining fabric

 

The double layer structure is adopted in the design of fleece jacket, which avoids the defect of weak windproof performance of single layer fleece jacket. The improved fleece jacket has enhanced the wind resistance and warmth retention on the original breathability and sweat wicking performance of the fleece jacket. The inner structure also has the function of sweat absorption and breathability. Therefore, fleece jackets can not only adapt to the weather conditions at low temperatures, but also won't feel stuffy when sweating. They are suitable for outdoor sports
