Polartec, LLC, a supplier of innovative textile solutions said Sweden based Houdini Sportswear's Power Houdi line is made with Polartec Power Stretch Pro.
According to a Polartec press release, the fabric is a 4-way stretch fleece engineered to push the performance of base layers.
“Polartec reinforces the elastic fibres on the exterior surface of the fabric for more support and stability during movement,” it informed.
“The unique construction also allows for increased resistance and durability against the elements without sacrificing breathability or comfort,” the company added.
“This is why the Power Houdi is a versatile garment that can be used as a protective outer layer or next-to-skin,” Polartec explained.
“We aim to have the best performing, best looking garments with the least amount of negative impact to the environment and Polartec is the perfect partner to help us achieve these goals,” said Houdini CEO Eva Karlsson.
“The company's innovative textiles help make our products comfortable, stylish and best of all satisfy the durability requirements of our active customers,” Karlsson too added.
“Polartec has the unique ability to help brands fulfill their vision,” said Doug Kelliher, Polartec's vice president of product management.
“Highly technical, durable textiles are not easy to create and we are strategic partners with our brands as we help them differentiate their garments in crowded markets through fabric innovation,” he stated.
