Hardshell fabric is a multi-layer composite professional protective fabric manufactured through lamination processes. It combines properties such as waterproofness, wind resistance, breathability, lightness, and wear resistance, with its weather resistance further enhanced by DWR treatment. It is the preferred material for hardshell gear in extreme sports like mountaineering and skiing, and is also suitable for professional expeditions and commuting in harsh weather, providing stable protection for various high-intensity scenarios. It typically meets the EN343 and EN20471 standards (optional), and is available in high-visibility colorways and contrasting color options.
