Modern textile technologies
LIFA® by HELLY HANSEN: A unique polypropylene fibre with hydrophobic properties. The fibre does not absorb moisture, but instead transports it directly to the next layer.
Moisture Vapour Transmission: A measure of breathability – the higher the value, the better the moisture transport.
Flatlock seams: A special seam construction that lies flat and prevents chafing – particularly important for functional base layers.
