Protective fabric toughens ski apparel

Published On: January 1, 2010

Problem: Fabrics used in ski apparel don’t hold up to the fraying and tearing caused by ski edges and crampons.

Solution: Originally developed for motorcycle racing, Schoeller-keprotec is a protective fabric for ski apparel that is abrasion proof, temperature and tear resistant, and comfortable as well. High-tensile aramid fibers such as Kevlar® ensure its extreme durability.
