Marmot Mid Weight Crew Neck LSV :
Polartec® Power Dry® fabrics are designed to keep your skin dry when you sweat. A patented bi-component knit construction that uses different yarns on either side of the fabric, creates two different surfaces: one that is optimized to move moisture away from the skin, the other to dry quickly. Marmot’s entire fall 2007 collection of men’s and women’s baselayer is made from Polartec® PowerDry® fabric with Cocona™ performance technology – a Marmot Upcycle™ product.
Marmot Upcycle™ products utilize discarded waste materials in the creation of new products in order to minimize their impact on the environment. Cocona™ is derived from would-be discarded or “upcycled” Coconut shell husks. The husks are then processed into activated charcoal carbon and blended into a polyester matrix, which is spun into a fiber and then knit into a baselayer fabric. Cocona™ is integral to the fiber, naturally occurring and cannot wash out.
Benefits of Cocona™
