WATERPROOF
Keeps outside moisture from penetrating the fabric. The waterproof rating is typically expressed in milliliters (1,000mm to 10,000mm)
based on water pressure tolerance over a 24-hour period. Generally, the higher the rating, the higher the waterproof protection.
BASIC | LEVEL 1 HIGH | LEVEL 2 EXTREME | LEVEL 3
600mm to 2,000mm 2,000mm to 8,000mm 8,000mm to 20,000mm+

BREATHABLE
The movement of air from one side of the fabric to the other to keep the wearer comfortable. The breathability rating is typically expressed in a gram
measurement of how much vapor a square meter (G/M2) of fabric will allow to pass in a 24-hour period (typically, 1,000G/M2 to 10,000G/M2) the
higher the number, the more breathable the garment.
BASIC | LEVEL 1 HIGH | LEVEL 2 EXTREME | LEVEL 3
