DrymaxX purpose classification
DrymaxX Classic
Waterproof comfort in normal conditions
When you want to move lightly and comfortably in normal conditions, choose DrymaxX Classic. It is designed to function optimally both in dry conditions and in the rain. DrymaxX Classic allows moisture vapour to disperse from the body while repelling external moisture.
DrymaxX All Weather
Focus on performance, not the conditions.
There is no need to avoid tight spots and tough situations, even in the harshest conditions. For example, sitting on a soaking surface and keeping dry requires the clothing material to have a five metre, i.e. 5000 mm, water column value. All fabrics in the DrymaxX All Weather group comfortably exceed this water column value. At the same time the fabrics allow moisture vapour to disperse effectively from the body. DrymaxX All Weather is highly suitable for all outdoor pursuits. It is at its best where weather conditions ask your clothing really tough questions.
DrymaxX Ultimate
The only choice for extreme conditions.
In the most exacting conditions of all, there's no room for compromises. DrymaxX Ultimate products have been designed to keep you dry and ready for action even in the most extreme conditions. Their waterproofing values extend up to 10000 mm. That's why they are particularly suitable for activities that require peak performance regardless of the conditions.
'Supercooled rain can be very problematic, even dangerous. In Greenland I experienced the problems it can cause, when all my gear got soaked and froze within a few minutes. Ropes froze stiff and all the rest of the equipment was cloaked in a thin layer of ice. The more it rained, the thicker the ice layer became. If clothing isn't completely waterproof in a situation like that, you are in a real jam.' Adventurer Patrick 'Pata' Degerman
Other fabrics
