Please Note: All our garments are made 'in house' which enables us to offer a 'Made to Measure' service if required.

 

TOTALLY WEATHERPROOF: From the freezing snows of the Arctic to the hot winds of the Sahara.

​WINDPROOF: A totally windproof barrier protecting you from wind-chill.

​RAINPROOF: Uniquely spun fibres swell to stop ingress of water.

​BALANCED: Warm when it's cold and cool when it's hot.

​HIGHLY BREATHABLE: The most breathable weatherproof fabric available.

​COMFORTABLE: As comfortable as wearing a cotton shirt.

​QUIET: Rustle free, at one with nature.

RELIABLE: Will not suddenly break down like laminated petro-chemical fabrics.

​DURABLE: Long lasting, often improving in performance and drape with age.

Ventile® fabric was championed by explorers such as Edmund Hillary on the first summit of Everest and by Sir Ranulph Fiennes operating in the world's most extreme and hostile environments. The unique characteristics of Ventile® give it major advantages over modern technical fabrics of today and is still used on major Arctic, Antarctic and Himalayan expeditions.
