Lyngen GORE-TEX Pant - Men's

A bluesign® APPROVED product means that the materials used in its production are made in an environmentally friendly way. This certification ensures that harmful substances are minimized and that the manufacturing process is safe for workers, promoting sustainable practices throughout the supply chain.

GORE-TEX is a specialized fabric that is both waterproof and breathable. It prevents water from entering while allowing moisture, like sweat, to escape. This makes it perfect for outdoor activities in wet conditions, ensuring you stay dry and comfortable. The "ePE" version uses recycled materials, making it an eco-friendly choice.

Vectran is a high-performance fiber known for its exceptional strength and durability. It is particularly effective in areas of outdoor gear that experience high friction, such as the kick patch of ski pants. This means your gear will be more resistant to wear and tear, extending its lifespan and performance.

A waterproof rating of 28,000mm means that the fabric can withstand a column of water 28,000 millimeters high before any water seeps through. This high rating indicates excellent waterproofing capabilities, making it suitable for extreme weather conditions and ensuring you stay dry even in heavy rain.

Fully sealed seams are crucial for enhancing the waterproof capabilities of clothing. This construction technique involves sealing the seams with special tape or coating, preventing water from leaking through these vulnerable areas. As a result, garments with fully sealed seams provide better protection against wet conditions.

To determine if a product is suitable for your outdoor activities, consider its waterproof rating, the presence of GORE-TEX or other breathable materials, and features like fully sealed seams. Additionally, look for durable materials like Vectran, which can withstand wear and tear. Reading product descriptions and customer reviews can also help you make an informed decision.
