DECATHLON BTWIN 100 City Cycling Rain Poncho - Waterproof - Black

Riding occasionally in the rain when cycling at a moderate pace. Pair it with a pair of rain overtrousers to protect your legs and your shoes.

HOW IS THIS PONCHO DESIGNED FOR URBAN MOBILITY?Loose fit so you can wear this poncho over your normal jacket and a 20-litre backpack.Unisex cut that covers you from head to knees.There are elastic bands to attach it to your hands and thighs.You can wear your helmet over or under the hood.Packs away into its cover (front pocket): 28 cm x 24 cm x 6 cm.

How to stay dryEven though this poncho protects your upper body really well (from your head to your knees), it's vital to pair it with overtrousers to protect your legs from the rain. Unfortunately, the poncho doesn't protect your shoes and so, in heavy downpours, this could leave you with very damp feet. The poncho's advantage lies in how easy it is to put on and to pack away into your pannier bags. Transform yourself in seconds!

HOW IS THE WATERPROOFING OF THIS PONCHO TESTED?This poncho is waterproof thanks to the durability and coating of its fabric and its sealed seams. The resistance of a fabric to water pressure is expressed in mm of a water jet (test based on standard ISO 811). Our material is resistant to the pressure from 2,000 mm of water. The finished product is approved in a shower test in the lab, where we recreate the conditions of an average downpour: 60 L water per square metre per hour for 2 hours.

COMPONENT BREATHABILITYHydrophilic coating (RET = 12): limits condensation inside the garment. To see whether a fabric is breathable, we test its evaporative resistance or RET (based on the ISO 11092 standard). The lower its resistance, the more the fabric lets water vapour produced by the body escape, and the more breathable it is.For example: RET < 9 = extremely breathable fabric. 9 < RET < 12 = highly breathable fabric. 12 < RET < 20 = breathable fabric. RET > 20 = slightly or not breathable fabric.

Eco-DesignDyeing in the mass is used to dye the fibres during the production of the fabric to reduce the environmental impact of the dyeing. It also reduces water consumption and pollution.

ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTA product's environmental impact is calculated for its entire life cycle using various indicators.An overall rating (ABCDE) is given, allowing you to easily identify products with the best environmental performance by comparing similar products to each other (T-shirts, trousers, backpacks etc.).Decathlon openly displays the environmental ratings of its products.To find out more:
