Softshell materials

The Softshell materials are multi-purpose fabrics that offer an optimal comfort without any misuse of equipment and a great adaptability to any weather change.

    The Softshell fabrics combine :
  • - good isolation and excellent windbreaker effect
  • - good breathability
  • - optimal comfort
  • - warmth contribution using the beat fleece fibres

Although Softshell fabrics do not attain the same levels of performance compared to other specific fabrics, they combines every functionality (Protection: membrane / thermal : fleece). In addition, every Softshell material answers to specific needs related to a variety of activities.

Eider clothes are made with materials that use highly performant technologies, among those:

Windefender Softshell Bi-stretch

The outer face of this softshell fabric (wrap and weft) allows a good resistance to abrasion. Thanks to its great extensibility, it allows a great freedom of movement. The Windefender membrane protects from the external aggressions. The inner scratched fleece face favours the warmth support.

    Advantages:
  • - Excellent resistance to abrasion
  • - Flexibility
  • - Warmth
  • - Comfort

Schoeller Free Climber

This exclusive Eider material, developed in collaboratio with Schoeller, is suitable for mountain races in all weather conditions. It features not only resistance to abrasion but also the comfortable properties of a two-way stretch fabric.

Polartec Wind Pro Hard Face

Polartec Wind Pro fabrics are 4 times more resistant to wind-chill than ordinary fleece fabrics and represent the future of lightweight insulation. These exclusive fibres and their tight knit increase wind resistance. This wind protection is usually a typical weakness in traditional fleeces. Its water-repellent surface offers protection against rain and snow while its fleecy velvet interior captures the air, providing an excellent warmth-to-weight ratio. Both fabric surfaces are extremely hard-wearing and resistant to pilling. HARD FACE surface treatment endows the fabric with ultra-resistant properties.

    Advantages:
  • - 4 times more resistant to wind compared to traditional fleeces
  • - Provides warmth without the weight and bulkiness of traditional insulating fabrics
  • - Very breathable
  • - Rain and snow repellent
