What are they made of?
These trousers are made using Exolite 210 stretch double weave, which is comprised of a polyamide elastane blend. Lab-tested and field-tested, Exolite is proven to be incredibly durable, completely windproof and worthy of wear in any season.
The material is finished with a fluorocarbon-free DWR (durable water repellent) for extra weather protection. This treatment encourages light rain and snow to bead off the material instead of soaking in. However, this does not mean it's fully waterproof.
Fluorocarbons, also known as PFCs, are chemical compounds initially used in DWRs. These compounds can't break down, so once they reach nature via water waste from factories, they stay in the environment and contaminate living organisms, working their way up the food chain. Fluorocarbons are suspected carcinogens and have been known to affect reproduction and hormone production in mammals. Therefore, many leading brands in the outdoor industry are prioritising cutting out the use of these chemicals entirely to contribute to a greener manufacturing process.
