A bluesign® APPROVED label indicates that the product is made from materials produced in an environmentally friendly manner. This certification ensures that harmful substances are minimized during production and that the manufacturing process is safe for workers. Choosing bluesign® APPROVED products helps support sustainable practices and reduces environmental impact.

HELLY TECH Performance technology provides a unique combination of waterproof and breathable fabric, designed to keep you dry and comfortable in various weather conditions. Whether you're hiking, skiing, or just out in the rain, this technology ensures that moisture from the outside is kept out while allowing sweat to escape, enhancing your overall comfort during outdoor activities.

PFC-free DWR (Durable Water Repellent) treatment is a coating applied to fabrics that makes them water-resistant without using harmful perfluorinated chemicals. This is important for eco-conscious consumers who want to avoid products that contribute to environmental pollution. By choosing PFC-free DWR treated items, you can enjoy water resistance while supporting safer manufacturing practices.

Fully sealed seams are a construction technique used in jackets to prevent water from leaking through the stitching. This is achieved by taping or sealing the seams with a waterproof material. Jackets with fully sealed seams provide enhanced waterproof protection, making them ideal for heavy rain or snow, ensuring you stay dry during your outdoor adventures.

An articulated cut refers to a design feature in clothing that is tailored to follow the natural shape of the body, allowing for greater movement and flexibility. This design is particularly beneficial during physical activities like skiing or climbing, as it enables you to move more freely without restrictions, enhancing your overall performance and comfort.

Features like bluesign® APPROVED materials, HELLY TECH Performance technology, PFC-free DWR treatment, fully sealed seams, and articulated cuts all contribute to the durability of outdoor gear. They ensure that the products are not only environmentally friendly but also resilient against harsh weather conditions, wear and tear, and provide comfort during physical activities. Investing in gear with these features means you’ll have reliable equipment that lasts longer and performs better in the outdoors.
