Shell fabric - Entrant - Dermizax EV3

To produce this unique sailing overall we use a super waterproof and breathable shell fabric called Entrant - Dermizax EV3(TM) - produced in Japan by Toray Industries Inc. By using this advanced fabric we get some extremely light overall. The weight is just arround 1 kilo for the whole thing (depending a bit of what size you wear). The Waterproofness is 20.000 mm H2O or higher and the Moisture permeability for this 3-layer laminated shell fabric is 16.000g/m2/24 hours - or higher. The testing method used to determine the Waterproofness and moisture permeability figures is referred to as: B-1 inverted cup method (JIS L1099-B1)

Dermizax EV3(TM) is a heavy duty performance fabric that offers an exceptionally high resistance to water pressure - and - a super durable water repellency. The water repellency level of 80 points is maintained even after 100 wash cycles.

All seams are taped with special tape - also produced by Toray Industries Inc. The tape reacts with the lamination while attached and an exact temperature, speed and pressure is obtained during the extensive taping procedure. This way we obtain a very strong and durable taping everywhere in the overall, and we ensure the high degree of Waterproofness required.

Zippers

All zippers are made by YKK - the worlds biggest and most sophisticated manufacturer of Zippers. We use a 10 mm 100% plastic zipper as front zipper since all metal - if applied - will corrode and become stiff and unhandy to use, when getting in contact with salty sea water. 

Re-inforcement fabric

The re-inforcement of the pants - knee and back part is made from a heavy duty Dermizax EV3 soft fabric. The re-inforcement fabric is sewn on as an extra layer of Dermizax EV3 laminated fabric.
