The aerobrane membrane consists of a unique structure of ultra-fine, hydrophilic polyurethane fibre composite that differs from other film-based membranes and offers a softer feel and beautiful, fluid textile characteristics.

“We found the Schoeller aerobrane technology to be the perfect 3L fabric replacement for our new ski touring kit, which is intended to be used during high-intensity mountain activities. The material needed to be able to hold up to varying weather conditions while still being highly air-permeable, super light and packable, durable, and stretchy,” Pia Halloran, head of design and development for Strafe, said in a press release. “Working with a world renowned, innovative, and respected partner like Schoeller has been a great experience, and we look forward to more collaborations in the future.”

To produce an electrostatic spun membrane, ultra-light, microscopic fibres are placed closely on top of each other, forming a clustered but firmly connected structure that can only be detected with the highest-level microscope technology. The membrane’s fibrous structure provides exceptional breathability while also allowing for ventilation. Aerobrane features water-resistant qualities, as water droplets on the exterior are larger than the spaces between the fibrous structures; however, the fibre structures also create an exceptional wind barrier.

Designed for touring and backcountry adventures, Strafe’s cham jacket has been a staff and athlete favourite for many years. Now with aerobrane membrane technology and 4-way stretch face, the cham is Strafe’s most air-permeable jacket to date. The new and improved cham Pant with aerobrane features a minimalist design that includes a lower cuff snap adjustment system to accommodate all boot types and allows for fabric retention to avoid damage while ascending with crampons.
