FlashDry Tech is a proprietary technology that enhances the moisture-wicking properties of fabric. It quickly evaporates sweat, keeping you dry and comfortable during activities like skiing, running, or hiking. This means you can focus on your performance without feeling weighed down by moisture.

UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor, which measures how much UV radiation can penetrate the fabric. A UPF rating of 40+ blocks at least 97.5% of UV rays, providing significant protection from the sun. This is crucial for outdoor enthusiasts who spend long hours in the sun, helping to prevent sunburn and long-term skin damage.

Recycled polyester is made from used plastic materials, like water bottles, which helps reduce waste and the environmental impact of producing new fabrics. By choosing clothing made from recycled polyester, you contribute to sustainability efforts and help decrease the amount of plastic in landfills and oceans.

Elastane, also known as spandex or Lycra, is a synthetic fiber known for its exceptional stretch and elasticity. It is often blended with other materials to provide a comfortable fit and allow for greater freedom of movement. This is especially beneficial during physical activities, as it helps garments move with your body.

A neck gaiter is a versatile piece of clothing that can be worn around the neck, face, or head. It is typically made from stretchy fabric and can provide warmth in cold weather, protection from the sun, or a shield against wind. This makes it an essential accessory for outdoor sports like skiing, snowboarding, or hiking, adapting to various weather conditions.

Absolutely! Clothing that combines FlashDry Tech with elastane offers the best of both worlds: moisture management and stretch. This combination ensures you stay dry and comfortable while enjoying maximum mobility during your outdoor activities, making it an excellent choice for active lifestyles.
