Staying comfortable and dry no matter what. To achieve this, gear yourself up with rainwear that includes the latest technology and design.\r\n<h3 id=\"produit-2\">1. Your needs<\/h3>\r\nA windbreaker is not necessarily a rain jacket, just as a winter coat is not a spring coat.\r\n\r\nTo make sure that raindrops bead on the outer layer of your raincoat rather than penetrating it, it must be made of a naturally water-resistant fabric such as polyester or nylon, and made with a DWR (durable water repellent) treatment. These different materials and technologies allow for repelling water to different degrees, so it\u2019s important to know your needs before purchasing a rain jacket. Will you be standing under the rain long? Do you need to stay 100% dry? Ask yourself these questions in order to make the right selection.\r\n\r\nAs far as the cut goes, it should also be suited to your needs. You might want a longer raincoat that covers your thighs if you\u2019ll be doing light hiking, or you may prefer a shorter cut if you\u2019re out running or jogging. Ponchos are also an interesting option, as they offer freedom of movement, but they won\u2019t protect as well from the rain, especially if there is a lot of wind.\r\n\r\nOr, perhaps you\u2019d like to select a shell to keep the water out. But, between a hard shell and soft shell jacket, you aren\u2019t sure which to choose. Here are some guidelines:\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>On the one hand, hard shells offer integral protection against precipitation and rain - they are entirely waterproof.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>For soft shells, they are water resistant without being 100% waterproof, but they are a better choice for heavy rain or wet snow.<\/li>\r\n \t<li>If you\u2019ll be heading out kayaking in the rain, an entirely waterproof shell is the right choice, whereas an everyday option would be a soft shell and an umbrella. You may also need good rain boots and waterproof pants.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h3 id=\"produit-3\">2. Materials to look for in a waterproof coat and rainwear<\/h3>\r\nFirst off, it\u2019s important to understand the difference between water resistance and a choice that is entirely waterproof.\r\n\r\nA jacket or clothing item that is waterproof completely blocks out water and resists heavy rain. Drops of water do not penetrate through the jacket. Water resistance allows for keeping you dry in the rain for a certain amount of time, but in a rainstorm, you will become more humid or feel damp.\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li><strong>Rubber and vinyl.<\/strong> Jackets designed from these fabrics are 100% waterproof, but don\u2019t offer good breathability. Use these for low-intensity activities that won\u2019t be under heavy rain.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Nylon.<\/strong> This fabric has low absorption, which allows it to dry quickly. Once it has been treated with DWR, it has good breathability and resists water, but for short periods of time.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Gore-Tex\u2122.<\/strong> Several brands such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/mammut\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mammut<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/marmot\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Marmot<\/a> offer this technology in their coats and jackets. This fiber is derived from teflon. It offers excellent waterproof and breathable features.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>eVENT\u00ae.<\/strong> This 3-layer membrane allows not only protection from wind and water, but it is waterproof and wicks moisture.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>MemBrain\u2122.<\/strong> This laminated membrane used by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/marmot\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Marmot<\/a> is waterproof, breathable, and water-resistant, and even operates in the harshest of weather conditions. It even reduces internal condensation.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Omni-Tech\u00ae.<\/strong> This <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/columbia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Columbia<\/a> technology is waterproof and breathable, but is better-suited to light rain.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>OutDry\u2122 Extreme.<\/strong> This impenetrable, waterproof membrane is also designed by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/columbia\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Columbia<\/a>. It allows humidity to move away from the body in order to keep you dry.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h3 id=\"produit-4\">3. Adequate rain protection with a durable water repellent (DWR) treatment<\/h3>\r\nAlmost all raincoats and the majority of winter coats and mid-season jackets have been treated with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/footwear\/accessories\/shoe-care\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">water repellent treatment<\/a>. It doesn\u2019t last forever, so it\u2019s important to maintain your technical clothing properly in order to make it last. You can also reapply a treatment when you notice that your jacket has begun losing its waterproofing abilities. It is possible to apply while washing using a cleaning and water repellent product.\r\n<h3 id=\"produit-5\">4. Features that make a difference<\/h3>\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li>An <strong>adjustable hood<\/strong> that covers your ears, head, and neck in case of rain.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Waterproof seams and zipper closures<\/strong> that prevent water from getting in.<\/li>\r\n \t<li><strong>Adjustable drawstrings<\/strong> at the wrists and at the waist to keep out cold and water.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>"},{"acf_fc_layout":"nosto_products","content_anchor":false,"anchor_link_text":"","nosto_class_name":"blog_cp_rain-jackets_men"},{"acf_fc_layout":"nosto_products","content_anchor":false,"anchor_link_text":"","nosto_class_name":"blog_cp_rain-jackets_women"},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_content","content_anchor":true,"anchor_link_text":"Why and how to wear waterproof pants","text_content":"<h2 id=\"produit-6\">Why and how to wear waterproof pants<\/h2>\r\nThe immense comfort that a good pair of rain pants can offer shouldn\u2019t be underestimated. If clouds are roaming the sky, take the time to slip on your Gore-Tex\u2122\u00a0rain pants - or other type of light and breathable pants (legs have a tendency to emit lots of heat) such as nylon with DWR, and you won\u2019t have to fear the rain one bit. Avoid pants that are solely water repellent and opt for a waterproof mention.\r\n\r\nIt is advised to wear waterproof pants if you\u2019ll be going biking, hiking, or climbing over several days in the rain.\r\n\r\nFinally, think about wearing leggings, hiking pants, or a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/shop?q=baselayer\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">baselayer<\/a> made from synthetic materials under your rain pants in order to maximize your comfort."},{"acf_fc_layout":"nosto_products","content_anchor":false,"anchor_link_text":"","nosto_class_name":"blog_cp_rain-pants_men"},{"acf_fc_layout":"nosto_products","content_anchor":false,"anchor_link_text":"","nosto_class_name":"blog_cp_rain-pants_women"},{"acf_fc_layout":"text_content","content_anchor":true,"anchor_link_text":"What to look for in good rain boots","text_content":"<h2 id=\"produit-7\">What to look for in good rain boots<\/h2>\r\nWhile certain models also use Gore-Tex\u2122 technology to deal with unforeseen weather conditions (hiking in the rain, for example), rain boots designed for everyday life that you\u2019ll need simply to skip out on puddles in the street are made of rubber.\r\n\r\nWhen it comes to fishing boots or boots worn for use in a watercraft, they are almost always made of rubber.\r\n\r\nShort or tall, with colourful designs or neutral, lined nor not, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/shop?q=rain+boots\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rain boots<\/a> are your best ally to get through transition seasons. Select flexible, lightweight ones for more comfort and you\u2019ll be all set to jump in those puddles!\r\n\r\nFinally, should you wear rain boots with or without <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sail.ca\/en\/footwear\/accessories\/socks\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">socks<\/a>? It\u2019s all a question of comfort, but it\u2019s recommended to wear them with a pair of merino wool socks or socks made from synthetic materials.
