The Scott Cambie Jacket combines modern, feminine styling with flexible functionality to provide incredible performance on and off piste. Waterproof and breathable, the Entrant® Dermizax fabric moves moisture away from the skin allowing it to be dispersed, keeping you dry and comfortable. Lightweight Primaloft® insulation is incorporated for incredible warmth and there is extra ventilation on hand should you need to cool down on the move. There are a host of well thought out features to offer extra protection should conditions turn more severe, and an integrated powder skirt which can attach to your pant ensuring that the snow stays on the mountain should you venture into the backcountry.
| Toray® Dermizax | Entrant® Dermizax™ moisture control fabric uses its ultra-thin membrane’s polymer molecule movement to efficiently absorb the build up of perspiration vapour from the inner surface, effectively dispersing it throughout the fabric. Combined with superb waterproof protection and tough performance, Entrant®Dermizax™ is ideal for heavy-duty applications. |
| Primaloft® | Primaloft uses the finest microfibres to provide the touch and warmth of down, yet is outstandingly water repellent and breathable. It packs down to a small size for transportation and keeps you warm, even in wet weather, drying out far quicker than down. |
| Waterproof Rating | This is measured and expressed as Hydrostatic Head in millimetres (mm). To find out the Hydrostatic Head of a fabric the manufacturer will take a clear tube and clamp their material over the bottom end. They will then fill the tube slowly with water and watch to see how high the column of water can get before the material lets drips through. The higher the hydrostatic head, the better the water protection. The European Standard a fabric must meet to be classified as waterproof is a Hydrostatic Head rating of 1500mm, and on average, outerwear fabrics tend to have a hydrostatic head of 10000mm and above. |
| Breathability Rating | Breathability is measured as a rating in grams of how much vapour a square metre of fabric will allow to pass through in 24 hours (g/m2/24). For general use, 10000g/m2/24 and above is desirable. It should be noted that breathable fabrics do not stop you sweating and care should be taken as to clothing worn beneath waterproof/breathable shells. High quality base layers and fleece or insulated midlayers should in themselves draw vapour from the body and pass it outwards, thus allowing the outer fabric to do its job. Cotton clothing should never be worn as part of a performance clothing layering system |
