Hydronaute PRO™ - Superior Breathability
Comfort in the Extreme
In all conditions Hydronaute PRO™ provides a superior level of performance, delivering significantly enhanced breathability while maintaining a totally weatherproof and windproof barrier. Leaving in its wake the limitations of microporous technologies, Hydronaute PRO™ fabrics, with their Hydrophyllic membranes, extend the range of breathable performance in real conditions, and raises the benchmark for durable waterproof breathable technology.
Hydronaute PRO™ utilises the latest technology in bonding the breathable membrane to the face fabric. Unlike the bonding agents of most microporous fabrics which clog pores, Hydronaute PRO's is breathable in itself. This allows for a greater volume of moisture vapour to be transported through the membrane.
This new adhesive also allows for a much stronger lamination between the membrane and face fabric resulting in a high level of durability. The most durable waterproof breathable technology is now here.
Hydronaute™
High Performance Fabric Technology
Hydronaute's high performance waterproof, highly breathable and windproof technology guarantees protection in all conditions. The combination of high performance new-age face fabrics with innovative laminate technology means superior weatherproofness and enhanced comfort.
Face Fabric Selection
The face fabric is a crucial factor in the performance of Mont Hydronaute™ garments. It affects the durability, breathability and a 'feel' of Hydronaute™. Our access to the most advanced face fabrics means that Mont Outerwear is technically superior to previously used fabric technologies. In particular, the face fabric in our Bushwalking range has increased abrasion resistance, tear strength and pinhole resistance.
Hydronaute Ultra 2.5™
Lightweight Performance
In all conditions, Hydronaute Ultra 2.5&trade provides the ultimate in lightweight performance - delivering a high level of breathability while maintaining a totally waterproof and windproof barrier.
The unique Hydrophyllic membrane used in Hydronaute Ultra 2.5&trade offers substantially better moisture vapour transpiration than microporous membranes, especially in warm, humid conditions. Its ability to handle condensation that occurs inside all rainjackets is without par.
Dry Touch
A printed polymer finish, applied to the membrane, enhances durability and eliminates the need for bulky tricot mesh lining. this 'dry touch' finish dramatically improves next to skin comfort and durability.
The result is one of increased durability and comfort in a lightweight, compact, performance shell.
