Fashion and Polartec fabrics: a marriage made in heaven. Fashion brings, style, tailoring and aesthetics whilst Polartec fabrics pitch up with sustainable technology, performance and quality. A technology that has been tested in the field, in the toughest of environments. The result is responsible apparel that looks good and performs in the worst of weathers. French-brand, Sweet Pants, has just launched its limited edition capsule collection: GRAND FROID using Polartec fabrics.
GRAND FROID by Sweet Pants (which translates as BIG COLD) has been designed to combat exactly that. The new capsule collection exudes a relaxed, pared-back aesthetic whilst delivering on all levels. First up, the OPEX parka for men and women sports a practical, longer cut for the ultimate in urban outdoor protection. Waterproof and breathable the outer has been paired with Polartec® Thermal Pro® Sherpa fabric. The parka’s outer fabric works in partnership with the Polartec lining to keep the wearer comfortable. Polartec’s Thermal Pro® Sherpa fabric has an on-trend aesthetic, is made from recycled content, is extremely breathable and very warm. The result is a waterproof jacket that provides breathable insulation so the wearer remains dry both inside and out.
Second up is the GRANDPA Jacket. A men’s shirt with a twist. This rugged shirt uses an iconic, Japanese, chequered fabric with a Polartec Thermal Pro® Sherpa lining. Again, used in this way the wearer is assured of sustainable warmth and breathability. Its easy-care-properties make this shirt a winner, delivering all-round comfort in colder temperatures. Other pieces using Polartec fabrics include hats, hoodies and trousers, all designed to provide unrivalled performance in the urban environment.
