Polartec

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.
