Torrentshell 3L Jacket - Kids'

The H2No Performance Standard is Patagonia's proprietary benchmark for waterproof and breathable products. Jackets that meet this standard are designed to keep you dry from external water while allowing sweat and moisture to escape, ensuring comfort in various weather conditions. This means you can enjoy outdoor activities without worrying about getting soaked.

PFC-free DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment is crucial for both performance and environmental responsibility. This treatment helps water bead up and roll off the fabric, keeping you dry. By choosing PFC-free options, you're also making a positive impact on the environment, as these treatments do not contain harmful perfluorinated chemicals that can pollute water sources.

ECONYL is a type of nylon made from recycled materials, such as discarded fishing nets, which helps reduce waste in our oceans. The "ripstop" feature means the fabric is woven to resist tearing, making it durable for outdoor use. By choosing jackets made with ECONYL, you're supporting sustainable practices while ensuring you have a long-lasting product.

Biobased content refers to materials sourced from renewable biological resources, like plants. In this jacket, the polycarbonate PU membrane contains 13% biobased content, which means a portion of the material is derived from plants instead of fossil fuels. This makes the jacket a more sustainable choice, helping to reduce reliance on non-renewable resources.

Fully sealed seams are a construction technique where the seams are covered with waterproof tape or coating. This prevents water from seeping through the stitched areas, significantly improving the jacket's overall waterproof performance. With fully sealed seams, you can trust that your jacket will keep you dry even in heavy rain or wet conditions.

Absolutely! Jackets that meet the H2No Performance Standard and feature PFC-free DWR treatment, along with durable materials like ECONYL, are designed for versatility. Whether you're hiking, skiing, or simply enjoying a rainy day, this jacket will provide the protection and comfort you need for a wide range of outdoor activities.
