Description
The Arbortec HD smock is a technical garment constructed from 100% polyester 3 3-layer laminated waterproof fabrics. Arbortec has partnered with Porelle membranes to create the perfect waterproof and breathable (17,000 mm² waterproof). The smock conforms
to EN 343:2019, Class 4,3 (Waterproof and Breathability).
We’ve reinforced the high-wear areas with abrasion-resistant material for increased durability in tough conditions. The reinforced material is made up of hexagonal articulated patterning for a comfortable fit and enhanced mobility.
The long back of the smock allows the water to get away from the upper. The long back can also be tucked behind the harness to stop the smock from riding up the back.
The large hood is helmet-compatible, with a mouldable peak. The hood can be removed or stowed away at the back of the jacket.
Large, zipped pocket at the front of the smock with waterproof zips and storm flap. A hidden chest pocket has been included, also protected by the large storm flap which covers the main chest zip.

Arbortec Smocks
Washing
Ensure that you do not dry your smock on heat source such as radiator, as this will ruin the taped seams.
Use the Nikwax techwash to wash your smock. To be used on wet weather gear, easy and quick to apply at home in a washing machine. Nikwax is able to develop full water repellency without tumble drying.
Do up all zips on your smock before putting the garment in the washing machine to prevent the zips from becoming damaged.
Re-Proofing
The reason the water beads up and rolls off the outer of the smock is due to the water repellence finish, known as a bounce-out finish.
This finish is temporary and over time will wear off with washing. When you notice the water is no longer beading up and rolling off the smock, you can re-proof your coat with our Nikwax TX.Direct wash in waterproofing for wet weather clothing, this will add water repellence and revives breathability.
