Outdoor clothing for the summer

Of course, outdoor clothing must have completely other features in summer than they must have in winter. Being outside in high temperatures and high sunlight is more enjoyable with the right summer outdoor clothing. The most important features are breathability and moisture transport. When you are doing sport outside, you are happy at the first place to have a breathable t-shirt allowing to the air flow around the body and minimizing the sweating. However, you will always get to sweat and to that point it is really worthwhile to wear a functional fiber with moisture transport. It helps wick away moisture and keeps your body dry. T-shirts and pants in such a material are nice to wear even with extreme sweating because the skin still feels dry.

Are you looking for something? In our online shop, you can use filters to only view this kind of clothing: just select the filter breathable or moisture wicking under “material characteristics” in the left-hand column.

Another useful feature for the summer clothing is UV-protection. A textile with integrated UV-protection, generally 50+, offers a more reliable protection from the direct sunlight than a common shirt does. You will also find clothing featuring additional UV-protection in our online shop in the filter options in the left-hand column.

The sunhat is an indispensable accessory in the summer. Without a hat, you risk strong sunburn or even sunstroke. Just have a look at the category “Hats” to find the appropriate sunhat.

Winter outdoor clothing

In winter, function clothing must protect from cold and moisture. The colder it is outside, the more essential it is to have clothing with good thermal performance. Depending on clothing types and styles, there are different aspects to consider. Softshell material for example protects from cold with a thick outer layer, often windproof and water repellent but without a thick lining to keep warm in the winter temperatures. It means that, if you don’t want to freeze in winter, you should combine a softshell jacket with a warm fleece or wool jacket providing an additional thermal protection. The so-called 3-in-1 jackets already features this thermal protection with the integrated inner jacket. As an outer layer, a waterproof or water repellent jacket also provides protection from wind and weather. That way, you will have a complete winter jacket. Natural or synthetic down jackets are ideal for even more thermal performance in winter and extreme uses. They offer the best thermal performance and are virtually light as a feather. The synthetic down has the advantage that it is easier to care for and still keeps warm even if wet. Down still offers the best warmth-to-weight performance.

In the area of winter sport clothing, you will have to distinguish between skiwear, snowboard clothing, apparels for back country skiing and normal winter hiking or snow shoeing. Why such a precise distinction? Of course, you can also snowboard or take a winter walk with you ski pants. However, there are differences in the material, cut and workmanship optimizing the apparels for each specific use. Snowboard pants are for example more robust than ski pants, for the only reason that snowboarders are more in contact with snow than skiers. Back country ski pants differ even more from a regular ski pants: they are a kind of thinner because the back country skier needs more freedom of movement and, very important, they feature a ventilation system. A back country skier gets much more to sweat uphill than a normal skier and enjoys the ventilation slots in the pants that he can close again for downhill. For winter hiking or snowshoeing, you will need a less specialized equipment. For this use, a lined pair of pants, often even only gaiters and a warm jacket are enough to enjoy the snow adventure.

Don’t forget the accessories! Without a warm beanie and well-fitting gloves, you cannot really enjoy winter sport. In our outdoor shop category “Accessories”, you can look for warm and well-fitting beanies and gloves.
