Vesta SCOTT Explorair Alpha

Polartec® Alpha® is the first high performance fabric to materialize the concept of active insulation. The low density fibers between air permeable woven layers create a more efficient fabric for regulating warmth and transferring moisture. It speeds up dry times. Polartec® Alpha® Direct is an evolution of original Alpha® technology that eliminates the need for a backing fabric to create an enclosed fabric package.

The Toray Airtastic® fabric is one of the lightest fabrics available (40g/m2). Suitable for lightweight insulated jackets and other clothing, the fabric has a unique air permeability control technology and a soft touch.

At SCOTT, we believe of doing things the right way and for the right reasons. We are committed to improving the impacts of our products and business practices, preserving the environment for future generations and stimulating positive change in our communities.

Therefore, PFC free/ C0 DWR treatments have been developed. They are less durable but more sustainable.
