POWER SHIELD®
BIO-BASED WEATHER PROTECTION
Our first expedition-grade waterproof + breathable fabric technology that’s plant-based and non-PFAS.
As the outdoor industry moves beyond PFAS and toward bio-based alternatives, Polartec® Power Shield®finally cracks the code on an eco-engineered weatherproof technology with absolutely no compromise in performance. The secret is a completely different membrane from the micro-porous, multi-layered Polartec membranes of the past, made with 48% non-food source, non-GMO plant based bio-materials.
MORE BREATHABLE. MORE WATERPROOF. MORE SUSTAINABLE.
