We make fabrics to enhance the lives of those who wear us and to reduce our impact on the planet we live on.

About us

To define a past, is to go beyond for the future. For over 40 years, we’ve led the way in fabric innovation. We were made to set the standard, made to create better, to do better. To question the norm and to be brave enough to create change, not because it is easy but because it is challenging, because we care. Because you care. We are a collective of curious minds, relentless innovators and dedicated problem solvers. We look beyond the existing and we create original. If it can be made, we will make it. And if it can’t? We’ll find a way. For our planet, our people, and our product. We were Made To Go Beyond.

    We are excited to introduce our latest innovation: the Magic packable waterproof jacket, developed in collaboration with Polartec®. Designed for cyclists who ride through any conditions, Magic blends high-performance features with a commitment to sustainability.    Made with Polartec® Power Shield™ RPM, a 100% recycled (PCR) 2-layer polyester membrane, this jacket provides waterproof protection, breathability, and high-stretch comfort. With a water column of 10,000 mm and breathability rated at 30,000 g/m²/24 hours, it ensures you stay dry and comfortable during even your most intense rides.    What sets Magic apart is its focus on sustainability. It’s completely PFAS-free and crafted from recycled materials, reducing its environmental impact without compromising performance. Another standout feature is its lightweight fabric, weighing just 97 g/m², which makes it easily packable into its rear zip pocket when not in use, while still being durable enough to handle any conditions.    Thoughtful details like the dual front zipper for adjustable ventilation, a high collar for extra wind and rain protection, and a reflective logo for enhanced visibility make Magic the perfect choice for cyclists in all weather.    No matter how challenging the conditions, Magic keeps you ready to ride with maximum comfort and performance.

    Against the breathtaking backdrop of Jackson Hole, Wyoming, Polartec recently took part to a three-day experiential event, focusing on its commitment to innovative fabric technologies and sustainability. Fourteen media professionals from the outdoor, travel, and lifestyle sectors were invited to experience Polartec firsthand. Partnering with Akimbo Communications, Polartec supported an immersive experience with activities ranging from scenic Phelps Lake hikes and fly fishing to challenging mountain biking trails, a relaxing river float, and a thrilling Via Ferrata climb. This diverse itinerary allowed participants to personally experience the comfort and performance of Polartec's fabrics across a variety of weather conditions – from warm sunshine to colder temperatures with rain and even light snow. Many participants chose jackets featuring Polartec Power Shield Pro, experiencing for themselves the fabric's exceptional waterproofing, breathability, and abrasion resistance.
