It is an ultra-thin and flexible membrane from Japan, known for its high breathability and waterproof properties. It is durable and capable of withstanding intense use, effectively preventing dirt penetration and offering complete windproof protection.

Hard-Tex membrane is a waterproof breathable membrane fabric. This microporous material has over 1.2-1.4 billion tiny holes per square centimeter. These pores are smaller than raindrops and larger than vapor molecules. Due to this structure, Hard-Tex membrane stops liquid water but allows vapor to pass through. This means Hard-Tex keeps you dry from the water outside and lets excess moisture evaporate from the skin.

Ripstop is a thin, lightweight and waterproof fabric that resists tearing and ripping due to a special reinforcing technique. During the weaving process, thicker threads are interwoven in a crosshatch pattern. With this structure, small tears can not easily spread across the fabric. It makes the finished gear more durable with the excellent strength-toweight ratio.

Hipora® is a 3-layer membrane fabric with a polyurethane coating that prevents water from entering but lets moisture out. It has a microporous structure with tiny holes in it, so water droplets won’t get inside the gear, but excess vapor can expel. Your body does not get sweaty while you stay dry and warm.

Polartec Thermal Pro fleece is the most advanced performance material of the Polartec® insulation fabrics. Its unique surface structure creates air pockets to trap air and retain body heat, delivering excellent lightweight warmth. Since Thermal Prо is also breathable, fast-drying, and durable, it’s perfect for dynamic or static outdoor activities in mild and cold weather.

Soft and lightweight synthetic insulation is an effective thermal barrier that provides thermal insulation with minimal weight. The thermal insulation characteristics are identical to natural bird down, but at the same time it has a number of advantages, such as elasticity, non-hygroscopicity and hypoallergenicity.

Thinsulate™ is an innovative synthetic material which is created to be more effective than natural down due to the increased density of fibers with a decreased size of fibers. The gaps between fibers not only retain some of the heat produced by the body, but also allow moisture to escape. Thinsulate™ retains its insulating properties when wet and performs great in any environment.

An innovative Thermalrate insulation technology introduces the best warmth-to-weight ratio. Thermalrate is a go-to choice for a thin and effective insulation layer in high performance gear. It offers great insulation properties in a smaller package and low water absorption to perform great in wet conditions.

Teflon® coating is an extremely durable non-stick tissue treatment that forms an invisible protection around the fibers, providing mud resistance. Any liquid, even oilbased, can be brushed off the fabric, as well as dust and dried mud can be removed with a simple cloth brush. Teflon® coating makes of cleaning easier and extends the durability of riding gear.

DWR is an ultra-thin Durable Water Repellent finish that is applied to the outer layer of a membrane fabric. It lowers the surface tension of the material and makes water disperse rather than saturate. DWR is usually used with waterproof membrane multi-layer fabrics such as Hard-Tex® to additionally protect outer layers against water penetration.

Cordura® is a heavy-duty material that has been developed to reinforce other fabrics for greater abrasion and tear resistance. When reinforced with Cordura® in key stress areas, riding gear becomes more durable and helps riders avoid cuts or gravel rash in the toughest environments.

Durable reflective elements are made by 3M™ Company from a material which reflects a large amount of light directly back toward its source. All garments with 3M™ reflective elements provide enhanced visibility of the rider, improving his safety, especially at nighttime, dawn, and dusk.

TIZIP® zipper is absolutely waterproof, strong, and suitable for demanding use. It provides both 100% water protection and fast access. TIZIP® zipper is highly resistant to damage caused by dirt and mud. It is also airtight, which means the seal is designed to tighten as the internal air pressure increases.

YKK fastening products set the industry standards for function, quality, and design. The extra strong YKK plastic hardware provides a smooth and easy release in high performance riding gear. In FINNTRAIL waders, suspenders come with opposing YKK buckles for waist-high conversion and easy put on/off performance.

F.I.L.L. technology is used in riding gear to ensure additional flotation assistance in emergency cases. This is a special highly buoyant mid-layer applied in the basic fabric. If a rider breaks through the ice and falls into the water, F.I.L.L. technology helps them to stay on the surface, keeping the head above the water for a certain period of time. NOTE! This is not a survival vest or other flotation devices.

Technological multi-layer material. The outer layer is a lightweight fabric, the intermediate layer is a membrane providing waterproofing and wind protection, and the inner layer is fleece, which wicks moisture and helps maintain a comfortable internal microclimate. Softshell is breathable, allows for ease of movement, and protects against moisture.

Waffle fabric, also known as honeycomb fabric, has raised threads that form small rectangles. A checkered pattern retains heat while allowing the material to breathe.

Kevlar is a heat-resistant para-aramid synthetic fiber with a molecular structure of many inter-chain bonds that make Kevlar incredibly strong. Abrasion resistant fabrics provide extremely high durability, heat resistance & tear strength.

YKK zippers are water-resistant, strong, and suitable for demanding useThey are resistant to the elements.

A good shoe sole is key to comfort during outdoor activities. The EVA midsole is lightweight, flexible, and shock-absorbent, offering excellent cushioning and impact protection. Its soft and flexible nature conforms to the foot’s shape, ensuring a comfortable and customized fit — making it an ideal choice for all types of boots.
