Soft Shell

Material Description
When Mammut describes itself as the pioneer of Soft Shells, it has a good reason to do so. After all, Mammut recognised the benefits of bistretch textiles long before the outdoor leisure industry started using the term «soft shell». In 1984, we launched the first stretch pants made from schoeller® textile on the market. Since then, we have been defining the Soft Shell market by continuously enhancing our jackets and pants.
  What are Soft Shells? - How they work
Soft Shells revolutionise the well-known principle of the onionskin principle by combining the second and third layers to produce a garment that offers temperature regulation and protection against the weather. Soft Shell garments are highly abrasion-resistant as well as elastic, windresistant and exhibit lasting water and dirt-repellent qualities. They thus offer adequate protection against wind and around 90% of all weather conditions. Mammut Comfort and Protection Soft Shells are made from high-grade textiles, whose individual qualities are ideally used to meet every need. These are:
  GORE® WINDSTOPPER® Soft Shell
The WINDSTOPPER® membrane makes this material totally windproof and highly breathable, and combines the comfort of an insulating, elasticized mid-layer with the weather protection of an outer layer in a single textile. WINDSTOPPER® Soft Shells keep athletes comfortably warm and dry, and offer them the freedom of movement for top performance in most weather conditions.
  schoeller®
schoeller® dryskin has been especially developed for high performance athletes who demand robustness and freedom of movement in addition to ideal wicking of moisture. To this end, schoeller® have created a definitive new development: the new four-channel fiber increases the evaporation surface area and accelerates drying many times over – The result: a constantly comfortable body climate.
schoeller® WB-400 combines three textiles in one: The outer surface made from elasticized fibers guarantees freedom of movement and repels dirt. The functional mid-layer lets sweat out while repelling water from the outside. And the fleece-like underside permits the comfortable regulation of heat.
  SOFtech™
SOFtech™ combines the second and third layer of clothing, thereby offering good protection against many weather conditions. The abrasionresistant materials are particularly elastic and breathable, and ensure a good body climate. SOFtech™ textiles are available with two different characteristics: for the Protection variants, protection against wind and weather are key; for the Comfort variants, the breathability.
