Pleasantly soft cotton mixed with double the quantity of polyester and spun into a yarn which combines the best of both materials: the textile good looks and feel of cotton with the robustness and lasting shape of polyester. In a special process, the fine yarn is woven into a very dense shell material which is light and fast drying and at the same time dirt, wind and water-resistant. The reverse side has a POLYURETHANE coating to support the windproof and waterproof function of the material. Care: machine wash at 40°C; occasional re-impregnation advised.
