Diamond Fuse section view
  • Highly durable face fabrics using Diamond Fuse yarn technology

  • High performance Endurance technology, extremely durable water repellent technology

  • Fully recyclable mono-material Revolve fabrics, made entirely from recycled polyester

Non-porous
Microporous

NON-POROUS

  • Solid non-porous membrane provides barrier against rain and snow, whilst allowing water vapour to pass through via molecular diffusion

  • Membrane breathability is dynamic – the rate of moisture transmission (MVTR) rises as the output of the user increases

MICROPOROUS

  • Hydrophobic microporous membrane provides protection against rain and snow

  • Holes, far smaller than a water droplet, allow moisture vapour to escape by diffusion

Responsible material options

Our partner Bureo works directly with fishing communities to collect their discarded fishing net waste and bring positive, end-of-use solutions to the most harmful form of ocean pollution.

These nets are recycled into nylon pellets, spun into yarn and woven to create Pertex fabrics.

NETPLUS POST-CONSUMER RECYCLED NYLON

Our partner Bureo works directly with fishing communities to collect their discarded fishing net waste and bring positive, end-of-use solutions to the most harmful form of ocean pollution.

These nets are recycled into nylon pellets, spun into yarn and woven to create Pertex fabrics.

We recover waste material from the production process, to be recycled into nylon pellets, thereby reducing use of virgin fossil fuel derived inputs.
