Did you know ? The ptarmigan - our totem animal - changes its plumage depending on the seasons. It turns white in winter to escape predators and increases the fluffiness of its feathers to avoid cold spells.
The PTARMIGAN SH shorts are inspired by this: they stop rain and wind and retain body heat (more than 30°C on the surface of the skin).
To enjoy your favorite activity whatever the weather, here's the basics: layers.
- The first layer, called internal, must be breathable, to guide perspiration towards the outside of the garment.
- The intermediate layer is insulating, it helps retain heat.
- The outer layer protects against bad weather: waterproof, breathable, windproof. It is to this last category that the PTARMIGAN SH shorts belong.
By building your outfit based on this system, you gain comfort and versatility. During exercise, you can remove the intermediate layer and then put it back on. In short, multi-layering is the basis.
