WATERPROOF AND BREATHABLE MATERIAL ULTRATECH® RECYCLED
The second generation of UltraTech Recycled was developed in collaboration with Taiwanese manufacturers specializing in technical fabrics and yarns. To preserve the basic properties of the outer material, this fabric is made from 50% recycled polyester made from used PET bottles and 50% virgin polyester.
Outer durable water replent C6 DWR coating repels water, causing it to “bead up” on the outer surface and stops it from penetrating the outermost layer. We are using only the C6 treatment that breaks down faster in the environment, has less potential toxicity over time to humans and wildlife.
PRIMALOFT® BIO™ REVOLUTIONARY INSULATION
Primaloft® Bio™ is the first ever 100% recycled, biodegradable synthetic fiber that biodegrades into 100% natural elements. We were one of the first boardsport brands that use Primaloft® premium insulation in their collections. Primaloft® brings a new approach to sustainability without compromising its superior performance and comfort throughout the garment's life cycle. Primaloft® insulation contains up to 96% air. This makes it light, warm but breathable and retains its insulating features even when it gets wet.

BIODEGRADABLE PACKAGING
This product is packaged in biodegradable P-Life® packaging. P-Life® oxo-biodegradable technology is an effective way to accelerate plastic degradation without harming the environment. P-life® is the world’s only proven oxo-biodegradable plastic additive.
P-Life is a proprietary additive technology that makes polyolefin polymers, considered as non-biodegradable polymers, into Oxo-Biodegradable polymers. P-Life® creates molecular scissions in the polymer chain, allowing oxygen to bond to the polymer and break it down into smaller and smaller compounds. These can be then naturally consumed by microorganisms, which convert the compounds into organic biomass. This technology results in a plastic product, that will begin to degrade in few years (or even months) after its use, instead of decades or centuries of polluting the Earth.
High quality material designed for maximum performance in a variety of conditions. The technical outer fabric is laminated with a waterproof and breathable membrane.
The bulletproof quality of our outerwear is what we're proud of. We use advanced materials and technologies because we see the critical step towards not wasting finite Earth resources and human energy in producing long-lasting products. Fundamentally, it is what allows you to ride all day, every day—this all in a package that doesn't have to break your bank account. Learn more about our key technologies and materials in this Tech Deep Dive blog that sums it all.
During adventures in nature and our favorite outdoor activities, we demand maximum performance from our technical clothing. We need it to keep us dry, warm, and comfortable in all weather conditions. To ensure that our technical clothing provides optimal functionality and a long lifespan, it is crucial to give it proper care. Let's take a look at how to properly care for Horsefeathers technical clothing.
