Insulation using recycled synthetic wadding

We use 90% recycled wadding for this padded jacket.
The wadding filling has 3 appealing qualities for hiking:
– it had good thermal insulation even when damp
– it provides breathability
– compressible

Water repellency

Water-repellency is a feature obtained by applying a treatment that prevents water from adhering to the surface of the fabric.
It “slides off” without being absorbed, so the garment remains light, breathable and warm. Please note, this does not mean it is waterproof.
This treatment can be repeated to keep all its effectiveness. Use sprays that are applied to the outside, rather than additives used when washing the garment, which can damage the product’s breathability.

OUR ENVIRONMENTAL POLICY

POLYESTER & RECYCLED WADDING: Using recycled polyester as well as recycled wadding (90%) means we can avoid using oil-based resources. The waste is recycled into resources that can be used again.

WHY CHOOSE RECYCLED POLYESTER?

By recycling plastic bottles or second-hand textiles to produce our polyester, we have reduced the utilisation of oil-based resources while preserving the quality and performance of the material during your mountain hikes.
