Then less abrasion-resistant, lighter clothing can be an advantage.Windproofing:- Windproof clothing keeps you from getting cold on breezy peaks or blustery trails and minimizes the wind chill effect, which is your body´s heat loss accelerated by wind. Pay special attention to this factor when your pace is high and conditions are cool and windy.Packability:- On multi-day adventures or other activities with a lot of equipment, space in the backpack is at a premium. Similarly, for those aiming to travel fast and light, packability is essential. This factor may be less relevant if protection and durability are the top priorities.Lightweight:- We design every product with performance in mind. That´s why weight, in combination with functionality, always plays a major role. The lighter the style, the freer and more agile you can move....
