Over the last few years we’ve made extraordinarily tough things – like our Indestructible Hooded Jacket that’s just 1 millimetre thick but can withstand a 75kmph fall and drag on concrete. And we’ve made extraordinarily light things – like our 100 gram Graphene T Shirt. But the next highly challenging step is combining the two, to create lightweight yet super high strength materials. It’s the start of a journey where the ultimate endpoint is bulletproof materials just a couple of microns thick.
So our Ultralight Puffer with Dyneema® uses the world’s strongest fibre™ to rethink what a puffer jacket can do. The puffer jacket is typically one of the most delicate pieces of clothing you can buy. But while this puffer jacket weighs just 450 grams, its outer shell is woven with thousands of reinforcing strands of Dyneema®, which weight for weight is up to 15x stronger than steel. Designed to work as a standalone outer layer or as part of a layering system, it’s weather resistant, durable against rips and abrasion, and comes insulated with recycled down that was cleaned with geothermal water from natural springs.
