ProDown Insulation
Down is the warmest, lightest and most compressible insulation avalable, but its performance suffers when it gets wet. ProDown is a natural down insulation enhanced with hydrophobic finish that improves warmth by allowing ProDown to dry faster than untreated down and ProDown repels moisture up to 10 times longer than regular down.
FlashDry
As a leader in the outdoor industry, The North Face has developed innovative, proprietary fabrics that incorporate microporous particles to improve moisture management and temperature regulation during outdoor activity. FlashDry fabrics feature a microporous particle additive that accelerates the removal of moisture from the skin and speeds evaporative drying. FlashDry enables the user to stay drier, more comfortable and out performing longer in a wide range of weather conditions and environments. FlashDry doesn't add weight or bulk and never washes or wears out.
BENEFITS:
Accelerates evaporation and keeps you dry.
Most effective moisture management.
FlashDry is permanently embedded in the yarn and wonÕt wash out.
100+ different products with FlashDry technology within our running, snowsports, climbing, and hiking apparel, baselayers, and accessories.
