Cordura®: Highly technical textile fibre known for its durability, strength, lightness and easy maintenance. Cordura® is extremely abrasion-resistant (4 times more than standard nylon and 20 times more than cotton). The light, rough surface is typical for this fabric.

Polartec® Alpha®: Polartec® Alpha® was originally developed for the U.S. Special Forces when they required a more advanced insulating material in their combat uniforms. This fabric is a new technology with active insulation that regulates core body temperatures during both dynamic and static activities. This latest advancement in adaptable breathability helps eliminate the need of shedding or adding layers of clothing. Among many remarkable technical features, fast drying, warmth even when wet, lightness and compressibility are the most notable.

Ripstop: This synthetic fabric, often made from nylon or polyester, uses a special reinforcing technique that makes it tear and abrasion-resistant. During the weaving process, reinforcement threads are interwoven at regular intervals into the hatched pattern. The intervals are generally 5 to 8 millimetres. Ripstop fabric is thin and lightweight with thicker threads interwoven into thinner cloth for a 3-dimensional structure.

FIT:

Performance: Worn over other layers of clothing. Slightly larger fit. This allows for perfectly combining different layers couches as well as increased breathability and heat retention - which increases overall comfort.

RANGE:

MAIWA: Multi-season, multi-purpose clothing range. Maiwa garments, fleeces, mid-layers, pants and shorts are highly functional and are perfect for all seasons and environments.
