TECHNOLOGY:

 

DWR: This coating allows water to form beads and run off the shell fabric instead of being absorbed. The water-repellent outer fabric increases insulation and prevents it from being saturated by liquids, preventing any feeling of dampness.

 

LifaLoft™: Developed in collaboration with Primaloft®, LifaLoft™ combines the vast knowledge of Lifa® and Primaloft® in terms of synthetic insulation. LifaLoft™ insulation is based on fabric technology that retains more air than polyester, while staying lightweight. The fibre does not water and has in-built water-repellent properties without treating the fabric, due to its Lifa® fibres. This makes it the ideal insulating technology for year-round adventures in all conditions, keeping you warm even when it gets wet.

PrimaLoft®: Often described as the alternative to down, PrimaLoft® insulation significantly boosts the performance of cold-weather garments. The microfibres are light, air permeable, and easily compressible. Products containing this insulation keeps you warm and dry even in the coldest and harshest weather conditions.

 

COMPOSITION:

 

LYCRA®: Garments made with Lycra® offer a perfect fit and are ideal for any type of sport or relaxation. This synthetic elastane fibre is capable of stretching over six times its length and resuming its original shape numerous times. Lycra® fibres have redefined comfort, support, freedom of movement and dimensional stability and are an invisible and versatile component that improve the characteristics of natural and synthetic fabrics.

 

CERTIFICATION:

 

PFC Free: PFCs belong to a group of chemical compounds that are used in a number of outdoor products for waterproofing the outer material. Their use has received a lot of criticism, as they are considered non-biodegradable. They build up in the body and are suspected to be harmful to health.

PFC-free products are environmentally friendly.
