Keys, money, lighter, pocketknife: Everything can be stored safely and neatly.
3D-BionicSphere® System at the tailbone
The sweat of the lower back area is conducted through the 3D-BionicSphere® System to the tailbone for evaporation. The SweatTraps® on the lower back are targeted specifically at catching sweat flowing toward the buttocks. This first phase, which often leads to friction sores, is interrupted before it can even begin.
Enable target insulation of individual body parts from a cold environment to protect the body from freezing in winter.
Snow guard
Highly elastic snow guard keeps out snow and moisture in fresh powder and deep snow.
Abrasion-resistant material
Guards against abrasion damage to the clothing.
ExpansionKnee™ of xitanit™
Protects knees from the cold. The silver lining provides the necessary heat reflection, keeping the heat inside the clothing system.
Zipped pocket with thermal reflection
The silver lining reflects the heat from the hands and helps them warm up quickly.
Removable belt
For an individualised fit.
Zip-off suspenders
for individual comfort.
Waistband
High waistband with diffuser design on the inside. Ducts positioned lengthways with the SpaceFrame™ elements allow hot, moist air to escape and support the body temperature inside the trousers.
3D-BionicSphere® System on the back
Guarantees effective ventilation so moisture is quickly wicked and transported away. No sweat means insulating air pockets in the wavelike structure protect against cold.
Allows individual fitting and guarantees a perfect hold on the wrist.
ExpansionRibs™
The knitted fabric of the ExpansionRibs™ folds apart based on the accordion principle, insuring that cold doesn‘t cool down the elbows. Even when sharply bent, the insulating effect is maintained through warm air stored in the interior. The flexibility of the ExpansionRibs™ and the elasticity of the yarn allow a frictionless freedom of movement.
Opening the zipper allows fresh air into the jacket.
Hood with xitanit™
The hydrophilic and hydrophobic structure, encased through a special process using aluminium threads, immediately absorbs the sweat and wicks it to the outside. The silver lining provides the necessary heat refl ection, keeping the heat inside the clothing system. A concealed zipper allows quick removal of the hood in nicer weather. Strings with discreetly hidden toggles allow individual adjustment of the hood.
ISO-Shoulder™
The wavelike structure of the ISO-Shoulder™ lies over the shoulders, keeping the body warm and guarding against chills.
Thanks to the integrated scarf of xitanit, you can protect your neck from the cold even in the coldest temperatures.
Diffuser
The diffuser design on the inside of the collar with longitudinally arranged ducts lets moist, warm air out of the jacket and supports climate control.
Allows personalisation of the fit and assures the necessary air ventilation in adverse conditions.
ClimaSphere System™
The ClimaSphere System™ in the back of the Equilibrate™ jacket ensures effective ventilation, so that moisture can easily be dissipated. At the same time, a layer of air between the ribbed structure works as an isolator.
3D-BionicSphere® System in the chest area
Without giving the body the impression that it is getting cold, fresh air from the 3D-BionicSphere® System in the chest area cools down the body temperature. The air is tempered inside the ducts, working like a sluice. Hot, moist air is disposed of using the dynamics of body warmth and then replaced with new fresh air.
