Technology:

XP 2-layer fabric

Palm 2-layer fabirc is packable, lightweight, waterproof and breathable.

• Woven face fabric treated with a DWR (durable water repellent) to prevent the fabric from becoming waterlogged so that it stays breathable
• A hydrophobic, microporous polyurethane coating is applied on the inside. The pores are too small to allow water droplets to pass through, but large enough for water vapour to pass through to the outside air.
• Waterproofness 5,000 mm
• Breathability 4,000 g/m2/24hrs
• Breathability tested by the A1 method

3D cut

We removed all the seams from the high-flex underarm area, reducing seam stress and decreasing the weight.  3D cut garments are pre-bent at the elbows, knees, sleeves and waist to improve mobility and reduce excess fabric.

Twin waist

Jackets have an inner skirt in addition to the adjustable outer waistband.  The twin waist minimises water ingress between your jacket or trousers and spraydeck.
