Performance
6/6 Windproofness
Products that protect against extreme wind and conditions, both through the construction of the garment and the taped and windproof membrane. These products have a stiffer fabric which provides a greater shield effect as it will not adhere to the mid-layer / body in the same way as lighter fabrics. This is especially efficient in temperatures below 0 degrees Celsius where the “wind chill” effect is increasing.
6/6 Waterproofness
Their most waterproof products which will keep you dry regardless of the weather. They have taped seams, durable membrane and will keep you protected through an entire day of demanding weather. The products are durable and will keep their functionality for years if you make sure to maintain the products. The products are engineered for maximum protection and have passed the extensive Storm test by Gore-Tex.
1/6 Insulation
Has no insulating properties but can still work well on top of insulation layers and provide heat through wind protection. Thin one-layer fabrics, often super packable and lightweight shell products. Will feel cold during windy conditions if you don’t have any layering underneath.
3/6 Breathability
Offers sufficient breathability at medium intense activities. Requires active use of ventilation and airing-options. This is the standard of classic Gore-Tex and membrane fabrics
5/6 Durability
Outer layers that tolerate though use over excessive time. With a little care and love, they will last for many, many years. Most of their 3-layers belong to this category and will cover any need for an intermediate to an active outdoor lifestyle.
