Several Kinds Of Fabrics For Down Garments

type

Waterproof coating (laminating) fabric

This kind of fabric is similar to the fabric of assault clothing, and has waterproof and moisture permeable properties.

。

But the difference is that the overall fabric will be better.

The fabric is lighter and softer.

In addition, because the down jacket is generally used in cold environment, the main purpose is to melt water from the solid state of ice and snow. Therefore, the fabric's resistance to water pressure will not be as high as that of the assault clothing, and most of the down garments made of waterproof fabrics need not press glue.

Another point to note is that some low down clothing is used to prevent leaky fleece from using breathable coating fabrics. If it is only for everyday wear, it can be considered reluctantly.

Representative fabrics: dryloft, PROO-TEC LM and so on.

High density water repellent fabric

The density of the fabric itself is very high, generally more than 290T.

Then the surface fabric is blended with high temperature to reduce the post-processing technology and improve the anti fleece property.

The fabric is light and soft, which is the highest in all down garment fabrics. It has windproof, water repellent and breathable properties.

These fabrics are the most widely used fabrics for down and down sleeping bags, but the late processing technology has great influence on fabric's Velvet resistance.

Representative fabrics: pertex, soft-b and so on.

3. Ordinary woven fabrics with velvet cloth.

Generally use low density nylon or polyester, when making down clothing, adding velvet cloth on the side of the fabric can play the role of anti fleece, and has good anti fleece performance.

The disadvantage is that the velvet cloth affects the softness of the down jacket and increases the weight of the whole garment.

The most important thing is if the inferior velvet is used, the air permeability of the down coat will be greatly reduced, and after the washing, the velvet cloth will easily be damaged or lump.

Another way is to prevent wool from processing. The process is to coat a layer of anti velvet glue on the fabric layer, and the fabric feels very bad and airtight.

Representative fabrics: many, but not well-known fabric manufacturers.

Performance comparison of three types of fabrics: the performance is the best; the waterproof coating (coating) fabric assumes that the fabric permeability is in line with the requirements, and the anti velvet cloth in the ordinary woven fabric is also assumed to be in accordance with the specifications; this table is only the basic reference value, and the actual situation will have greater discrepancy according to the fabric of the three types.
