The breathability and waterproofness of a rain poncho

Waterproof means that raindrops simply cannot penetrate the fabric of your rain poncho. The waterproofness of your rain poncho is calculated in millimeters. You can call a rain poncho absolutely waterproof if it can withstand a pressure of 1,500 mm of rain. At Hipinderegen.nl all rain ponchos are absolutely waterproof (as much as 5,000 mm). Not only are the millimeters of rain good, we have tested them and plowed through the rain dry for you! In addition to your rain poncho being waterproof, it must breathe. Your poncho is then able to let moisture from the inside out. In a nice word we call this water vapor permeable. This means you will not suffer from sweat in your rain poncho.
