WeatherMAX®
WeatherMAX’s proprietary SaturaMax yarns are engineered to provide long-lasting outdoor durability and stability. Unlike acrylic yarns that are made from tiny staple or bits of fiber that are twisted and spun to hold them together, WeatherMAX is made from filaments (like tiny fishing lines all bundled together) that are solid so they don’t separate and expand.
Additionally, WeatherMAX 80 and LT’s full weight is the fiber. Other fabrics use coatings to provide water resistance and while those coatings add weight, they do not add any strength. WeatherMAX with HydroMax+ finish provide as much water resistance as coated fabrics without the added weight of the coating.
WeatherMAX is not only solution-dyed - it is solution-dyed with 100% pigments, similar to acrylic fabrics. Unlike most solution-dyed polyesters or polypropylene, WeatherMAX has no liquid dyes. Pigments are far more stable than liquid dyes. No PVC or urethane coatings, so it is 100% recyclable.
WeatherMAX® is available in multiple weights and variations to suit all applications:
WeatherMAX® 3D: 3-way stretch for form fitting and shade.
WeatherMAX® 65: Lighter weight for applications that don't need as much strength.
WeatherMAX® 80: The workhorse, excellent water resistance, strength, and breathability.
