Softshell trousers

Softshell pants from Zizzi.

Comfortable softshell pants in an extra stretchy quality, that ensures optimal comfort and freedom of movement. They close with buttons on the front and have adjustable velcro at the foot and waist. The pants are windproof, breathable and super water repellent.

Softshell is a unique fabric known for its flexibility, comfort and lightweight design. The fabric is breathable, windproof and water repellent. The seams are not taped, so in heavy rain water can soak through the seams.

• These softshell pants have a water column pressure of 10,000 mm.

The water column pressure listed for the pants refers to a measurement of the water repellency of the fabric. It indicates the amount of water in millimeters that can be pressed against the fabric, before water begins to permeate and soak through it.

When it comes to waterproof materials, a waterproof membrane or coating is often used. It can be a thin film or layer of material applied to the outer fabric. This membrane is designed to prevent water from entering the fabric, while allowing moisture and vapor (sweat) from the inside to escape, maintaining comfort for the wearer.
