For all athletes who take part in outdoor winter sports and wish to wear technical, high-performance garments that are comfortable and lightweight as well, CMP, a leader in high-performance textiles and clothing, has used Dryarn for its Autumn/Winter 2015-2016 collection.
The company used innovative Dryarn to make garments with extremely high technical performance in terms of comfort, thermoregulation and breathability but with a low specific weight.
The light Dryarn fibre can be used to make elegant, compact and close-fitting garments that adhere perfectly to the shape of the body allowing athletes maximum freedom of movement, accoridng to the manufacturer.
For the A/W 2015-16 season, CMP is offering beautiful and comfortable sweaters, made in an elegant heritage style. They are very light but at the same time are said to offer great thermal protection because of Dryarn’s high insulation capacity. This feature is designed to keep the body temperature stable, protecting it from cold and heat, and giving a pleasant feeling of dry skin, thanks to the fibre’s great breathability.
They are practical garments in terms of maintenance as well; they can be washed easily in a machine, dry quickly and do not need ironing, the company reports.
They are colour-fast and abrasion-resistant (they do not suffer from pilling caused by rubbing), thanks to Dryarn’s high water resistance, which is designed to help prolong their life, guaranteeing the exceptional maintenance conditions described above.
