WATERPROOF, BREATHABLE & LIGHTWEIGHT

Our proprietary and patented manufacturing process creates a PFAS and solvent-free membrane that is naturally hydrophobic (repels water), has smooth and uniform pores too small for water droplets to penetrate, and features high porosity that allows for airflow and moisture evaporation.


Waterproof

The primary goal of any outdoor apparel membrane is to protect its user from the elements. RespiGard® membranes are naturally hydrophobic – eliminating the need for chemical treatments – and the pores are designed to be smaller than a rain drop, keeping users dry in all conditions.


Breathable

Each jacket made with a RespiGard® membrane inside contains billions of tiny pores that maximize the exchange of humidity from inside the jacket to the outside environment. Regardless of the measurement method used, RespiGard® rank among the highest in the textile industry for breathability.


Lightweight

An unmatched combination of lightweight raw materials and a highly porous membrane structure allows users to enjoy their backcountry journey without carrying unnecessary weight.
