My new friend’s name is Maxim, and he is a comrade, a real warm time. Maxim is a padded down jacket and in the cooler Season, which is now almost over, she was my faithful companion: on the water, on the pier and even on the motor boat. Now it is cold again, in the clear spring sun, and I’m wearing Down. Just as I made it the entire winter season.

But Maxim is different: First of all, from the distance, a closed type is considered, rather. Maritime dark blue, with a high closed collar, and I audible Zipp! up under the chin to be used. With two Stropps, I could pull me to the textile around the waist. So I have it warm and cuddly – on the boat and elsewhere. Water from the top? Hood up, finished.

The jacket has a life of its own, they fluff up like. Then the zig-zag stitching that runs with a few diagonal lines across the chest trembles. The spacious outside pockets of this jacket are the men’s Version of a ladies handbag: deep and roomy, get out of here nothing. An example from today: on the left of the Hand-disinfection, on the right, my house, my car, my office – that is to say, my keys and the mobile phone.

While I write these lines, kept me warm. It rustles, while the icy March Wind blows through the Home Office. The Two-layer Material is windproof and waterproof like a rain jacket. Where to me in the last year, even thicker Sweater and Colani appeared suitable for windy moments, I went now with Maxim breathable through the Winter. Including nothing more than a float Shirt. If it was really cold, and joined my Troyer from the Elbe country.

The unit of measure of the breathability of textiles is called MVP. MVP is the amount of water vapor that can be discharged within 24 hours through a 1 square foot surface of a membrane. So the breathability of a jacket of 3,000 is given, can evaporate within a period of 24 hours to three liters (3,000 grams) of water vapor per square meter. The higher this value is, the better. Maxim creates ten liters per day and is from S to XXXL to.
