Choosing technical clothing for summer: the essentials to know
When temperatures rise, it is crucial to opt for suitable clothing to fully enjoy your summer activities. Whether for hiking, trekking, or climbing, the choice of materials is paramount. Breathable fabrics like polyester or elastane are ideal as they allow better air circulation while being lightweight and durable. For those who prioritize comfort on the skin, virgin merino wool is an excellent option due to its antibacterial properties.
At Alpinstore, we offer a varied range of summer jackets and breathable upper body clothing. Don't forget that choosing the right accessories like hats or sunglasses can also make all the difference during your summer outings.
Winter technical clothing: how to prepare well?
Winter brings its share of challenges in terms of clothing. Cold conditions require suitable clothing that guarantees warmth and protection against the elements. Softshell garments are perfect for outdoor activities such as hiking or climbing, offering protection against wind and light rain. If you want a technical but simple garment, opt for down jackets, and find our women's down jackets and men's down jackets on the site.
For those who ski, it is essential to invest in specific outfits that ensure waterproofing and breathability. At Alpinstore, discover our selection dedicated to winter jackets.. Also, remember to check the waterproofing ratings (at least 10,000 mm) as well as those related to breathability (above 8000 g) to stay dry while effectively evacuating your sweat.
Understanding waterproofing and breathability: keys to outdoor clothing
Waterproofing is measured by the pressure exerted by a column of water before it penetrates the fabric (expressed in millimeters). The higher this measurement, the more resistant your clothing will be to the elements. At the same time, it is important to consider breathability, which allows the body to evacuate sweat without accumulating internal moisture.
RET (Resistance - Evaporation - Transmission) measurements are essential here; a RET below 6 indicates a very breathable fabric while a RET above 20 means non-breathable.
To ensure a good balance between these two criteria when shopping at Alpinstore, do not hesitate to consult our flagship brands such as Patagonia, Volcom, or Picture.
The multi-layer system: maximize your clothing comfort in all seasons!
The principle of the multi-layer system is to layer several layers adapted to the climatic conditions encountered during your sports activities. The first layer should be functional with synthetic or natural materials allowing good moisture transfer to the outside.
The second layer provides thermal insulation while the third layer protects against the elements.
At Alpinstore, we have selected various products that perfectly meet the requirements of the multi-layer system, including recognized brands like Patagonia,
