Differences of waterproof fabrics for outdoor clothing

1 microporous fabric and expanded polytetrafluoroethylene composite film

Its advantages are waterproof, breathable and stable at low temperature. For example, when climbing snow-capped mountains, everyone wears jackets made of this fabric.

Disadvantages are slightly poor washability, high price and wide application.

2. PU or TPU coated (or coated) hydrophilic fabric

Advantages: the fabric is durable and cheap.

The disadvantage is poor air permeability. In the low temperature environment, the instability of material properties will reduce the air permeability, and the application scope is not as wide as the former.

Goose down goose down

Undeniably, down is the best among all kinds of warm-keeping materials, because its structure is soft and its wrinkles are very small, but the quality of down is very uneven, and only high-quality down has these advantages.

Therefore, Montebell specially selects 590 and 650 grade goose down from North America, and produces finished products through strict cleaning, disinfection, selection and other processes to ensure that its down products have stronger thermal insulation and better moisture-proof performance than other products. The specification of down is expressed by its filling amount. Calculated by how many cubic inches an inch of down can fill, it is generally between 300 and 500, of which 650+ is the best.

Exceloft superfine fiber thermal insulation cotton

Momber has developed a new generation of chemical fiber thermal insulation cotton by using modern superfine fiber technology. Compared with down, chemical fiber is less warm, but more moisture-proof and more affordable.

Exceloft consists of concentric fibers of only 8 denier and microfibers of 0.8 denier. By making the fiber more elastic, the surface tension of microfibers can fully keep the air warm.

In addition, it uses the folding method of elastic ring to make cotton, which is different from the general winding method. This can make it more elastic and compressive, which is better than ordinary warm cotton.
