Soft shell Fabrics Popular for Outerwear

Thursday 16th of August 2007 11:00:22 PM

When it comes to Sweatshirts and other outerwear, consumers are looking for long-lasting, quality fabrics that are also comfortable and stylish. Soft shell fabrics are the latest in a group of fabrics that will be popular in the upcoming fall season.

“Soft shell fabrics is the latest line-up of must-have performance jackets. The fabric is lightweight that stretches to further enhance performance and comfort levels required for today’s ever demanding outdoor lifestyle. In addition, Soft shell offers high levels of warmth and has to be the first choice outer layer when worn in dry and cold weather conditions and the perfect mid-layer hen worn with a waterproof garment,” said David Sanders-Smith, of Result.

For those who enjoy the outdoors, being able to take off outer layers of clothing can make the transition from cold air to room temperature much easier. One of the leading companies that manufactures jackets, Sweatshirts, vests, and other outerwear using Soft shell fabrics is Result. Other companies including Russell Europe, BTC Activewear, and Jerzees Colours are also creating fall lines using Soft shell fabrics like cotton and blended materials.

“Soft shell is the latest innovation in outdoor clothing, it protects from the elements, it’s comfortable, and it’s amazing,” said Emma Wood from Russell Europe.
