The DWR coating makes the fabric water repellent, so that water forms droplets on its surface and runs off instead of soaking in. This protects the fabric from getting wet quickly, providing greater comfort in wet conditions, but does not guarantee full water repellency.

It provides a very high level of protection against moisture whilst ensuring efficient vapour release. A waterproof rating of 35,000 mm protects you during heavy rainfall, whilst a breathability rating of 35,000 g/m²/24 h helps to minimise the build-up of moisture from the inside during physical activity and improves comfort in challenging conditions.
