Frequently asked
What does a 10,000 mm waterproof rating mean?
It is the height (in millimetres) of a water column the fabric can hold before water penetrates. 10,000 mm comfortably handles steady rain and snowfall — well above the threshold for everyday outerwear.
Is ShellProtect breathable enough for active use?
Yes. At 10,000 g/m²/24h, perspiration vapour passes through the membrane fast enough for brisk walking, cycling and most outdoor activities. You stay dry from both rain outside and sweat inside.
What are taped seams and why do they matter?
Stitching creates tiny holes that water can leak through. Taped seams cover those stitches with a heat-sealed waterproof tape, so the garment’s waterproof rating is preserved at every join.
How do I care for ShellProtect garments?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with mild detergent and avoid fabric softener. Air dry, and if needed, use a steamer to gently remove creases.
