My K2 Jackets, 2005 Yunnan Rain and Snow
buy:
In mid-January 2005, two sets of K2 professional Jackets were purchased in Greenfield's sallylove group purchase.
The idea at that time was:
For one thing, the Jackets that have never passed through domestic products, and listened to everyone, said that they would like to have the opportunity to try and support the domestic brands.
Second, it is cheap. More than 500 yuan a Jackets, more than 300 yuan professional Trousers, the price is really tempting. .
During the Spring Festival, in Nujiang, Yunnan, we and our team brought a brand new K2 jacket.
Short-term use, waterproof is still good
In Gongshan, it coincides with a rare snow disaster. When it was ready to fall from the autumn bucket, the world began to rain. The amount of rain is between small and moderate rains. If it is moderate rain, it is a kind of rain that is closer to light rain. Temperatures also began to fall, but they were all above zero. The first time we put on the Jackets, because fellow villagers said that the local rain did not stop for a while, they stayed in the village on that day, and until the next morning, the chance to use Jackets was to go to the church in the village to make a Mass, or In and out of the courtyard, each exposure to the rain does not exceed 5 minutes. And I spend most of my time indoors. At this time, the rainproof performance of the jacket can be felt, and there is no penetration of water on the surface.
Rain and snow march in five hours, wet three layers
March situation:
That night, the rain turned into snow. The next morning at 10:40, we set off and walked down the hill. Weight-bearing marching, non-stop all the way, arrived at the village of Bingzhongluo around 15:45. The road was very cold and the hands were frozen. Because they did not have waterproof gloves, they were still on the outside. During the march, he only sweated slightly within 10 minutes of starting and soon he did it.
Dressed in march:
I wear a pair of trousers underneath. The top is a K2 Jacket and a fleece-accelerated drying garment. My companion is a brand new K2, which is full of fleece underwear and thermal underwear. A 50 litre backpack uses a normal rain cover to protect against rain.
Weather and others:
Rain and snow along the way, the rain has not been very large, and almost the same day before, and occasionally a few minutes is very small, but more than half of the time is snow, the more the snow near the mountains, the larger it is almost a goose snow. Deep knees are deepest. The temperature is also getting lower and lower, muddy snow or accumulated water, so you must always be careful not to go fast. It is estimated that the temperature should be above zero or zero, and the temperature of somatosensory is much better than zero in Beijing. In many places there are still flowing water from the mountains, and the temperature is not very low.
Performance of K2 Jackets:
The wet snow in the south, coupled with the temperature is not very low, the snow falling on the body quickly turned out, only in the final period of time in the outer jacket formed a small amount of very soft near water frost.
Upon arrival, he changed his clothes to a fire and found that the front of the fleece jacket had been wet from the beginning of the chest, and the wetness was not even enough to screw the water, but it was definitely wet. The innermost quick-drying clothes are also the same; in front of the charcoal fire pit in the inn, the body is covered with white mist and is very spectacular. Because of the coldness and coldness, I spent more than 20 minutes in front of the brazier to ease.
The back of the fleece and quick-drying clothes remain dry.
Because all the contents of the pockets of the jackets and the zhuarong were soaked that zebras had to make a big splash under the crowd, waving a bunch of wet 100-dollar bills roasted in a brazier.
Another point to explain: It is certain that all the zippers of the Jackets are tightly affixed before they set off and on the road. They did not dare to slack off.
Another companion, the situation is the same as mine. But there is no problem with waterproof pants. I didn't wear the trousers at the time. Later I wore MHW, so I didn't mention it.
The backpack is only carrying the dampness caused by water seepage at the bottom of the system and inside the bottom.
Since then, on the road from Bingzhongluo to Gongshan, there have been several days of goose-like snowfall or rain and snow, and several encounters with avalanches, landslides, and mudslides have required constant off-the-shelf walking or carts. Short-term (up to 20 minutes) ) In the rain and snow, neither of our two men's jackets had any problems with waterproofing.
The use of K2 Professional Trousers in Ice and Snow Training In late January 2005, Miyun, Beijing, trained in self-protection on slippery ice, and briefly (for a few seconds) slipped into a floating layer of ice. Ice water. No water penetrated into the inner layer, and the water on the outer layer soon dried up. At that time, the temperature was minus 5-10 degrees Celsius.
For comparison:
In 2002, on the Three Gorges on foot, I wore a genuine MHW assault trousers. All the clothes were still dry after a long march in heavy rains in a few days.
Do not know what caused the K2 Jackets to have such performance. Is the fabric? Adhesive? Or zipper? I can't study if I don't know anything about equipment.
Fortunately, this is the last day of my journey. Fortunately, here in Yunnan, a snowstorm is not a bad climate.
After returning, this dress was never touched again. Speaking with a friend, someone suggested finding a K2 return. Do you know if K2 is okay? In any case, I will not wear this suit to climb. Maybe it will be worn as a fashionable clothing when walking in the city in cold weather.
The arrival of May Day, many of my friends are busy purchasing equipment and writing my experience for your reference. Please think twice before buying. If you are going to a bad place, be sure to choose a product that really protects you.
