Applications & environments
Shop by operating environment
Buyers do not buy a fabric. They buy a garment that has to work in specific conditions. This is the second way into the range — organised by the environment the garment is issued for, so the fabric, construction and reinforcement decisions follow from the conditions rather than from a product name.
Environments
7 operating environments
Application
Cold Weather
Cold weather is not solved by a single warm garment.
Application
Desert
Desert conditions are defined by solar load, very low humidity, wind-borne dust and a wide temperature swing between day and night.
Application
Extreme Cold Weather
Extreme cold is not a colder version of a normal working day.
Application
Heavy Duty / Field
Heavy duty field use is defined by sustained mechanical abuse rather than by climate.
Application
Hot Weather
Hot weather is not one condition.
Application
Tropical / Humid
Tropical and humid conditions break a garment in ways that dry heat does not.
Application
Wet Weather
Wet weather forces a trade off that cannot be designed away.
Describe the conditions and we will specify to them
Destination country, season, humidity and whether the garment is worn under equipment. Those four facts change the correct fabric and construction more than any other input.
