About Schöffel
The success story
The history of the outdoor company from Schwabmünchen in Bavaria began over 200 years ago. In 1804, Georg Schöffel begins manufacturing hosiery and caps, paving the way for the outdoor company. Until the 1950s, the company produced all kinds of textile goods and clothing. Then, during the period of the economic miracle, hiking as a leisure activity came into fashion and Schöffel developed the matching outfit in the form of trousers, making its first entry into the market for outdoor clothing.
In the 70s, new materials dominated the outdoor world, above all Gore-Tex, a new type of wind- and waterproof membrane. Schöffel was the first German manufacturer to recognise the potential of Gore-Tex and landed an absolute sales hit with the mountain anorak "Tibet" in the early 1980s. This marked the beginning of the triumphal procession of Gore-Tex and the outdoor brand Schöffel. Today the company is one of the leading manufacturers of functional ski and outdoor clothing in the German-speaking world and has also made a name for itself internationally. The company's head office is then, as now, Schwabmünchen in Bavarian Swabia.
FAQ
What distinguishes the Venturi material?
The so-called Venturi is a powerful material that combines a waterproof membrane with a comfortable grip. The Venturi material is an in-house development from Schöffel and offers convincing waterproof, windproof and breathable features combined with a pleasantly soft feel. It is processed as a 2 or 3-layer laminate depending on requirements. Schöffel now uses the material in many of its outdoor jackets.
Which outdoor jackets are included in the product portfolio?
Outdoor jackets from Schöffel are known for their high-quality workmanship, functional materials and simple design. Schöffel offers rain jackets, softshell jackets, fleece jackets, down jackets, ski jackets and 3-in-1 jackets, all of which are designed with specific functional materials for the selected activity. Many waterproof outdoor jackets from Schöffel are made of Venturi, a material developed by Schöffel itself, which combines waterproof and breathable properties with a pleasant feel.
How are Schöffel 3-in-1 jackets constructed?
Schöffel offers a wide range of 3-in-1 jackets for outdoor use, which are made of high-quality functional materials and can be worn flexibly. A 3-in-1 jacket always combines a waterproof hardshell jacket with a removable warming inner jacket, both of which can be worn in combination or separately. Schöffel often uses the reliable Venturi material for the hardshell part of its 3-in-1 jackets. To complete the jackets, the hardshell is combined with warm fleece inner jackets, which can be zipped into the outer jacket or worn separately.
What materials are used in Schöffel ski jackets?
Ski sports clothing, and in particular the ski jackets sector, is a main part of the Schöffel range. The entire outdoor expertise of the company flows into its technically sophisticated ski jackets. Thanks to the Gore-Tex fabric, the ski jackets offer absolute weather protection, are breathable, waterproof and windproof. Schöffel often uses Primaloft insulation, a high-quality synthetic alternative to down, which is particularly easy to care for. Schöffel ski jackets are also equipped with many useful technical and fashionable details, such as a detachable snow guard, underarm ventilation or well thought-out inner pockets, which will make your day on the slopes even more pleasant.
Why rely on the outdoor pants from Schöffel?
Outdoor trousers from Schöffel are known for their high-quality functional materials and casual cuts. The brand's trekking trousers, mountain sports trousers and universal outdoor trousers, are made from, depending on the acitivity, extremely robust or especially lightweight, breathable functional materials. Schöffel's outdoor trousers are always made of particularly hard-wearing material, which also withstands rough use on rock and is usually water-repellent. All trousers feature well designed details such as side pockets, roll-up trouser legs or ventilation options and are therefore very popular. Thanks to the zip-off trouser legs, the trekking trousers can be worn as long or short trousers depending on the temperature.
Why are Schöffel shirts and blouses suitable for hiking?
Another main focus of Schöffel's clothing range is outdoor shirts, blouses and T-shirts. With its great know-how, Schöffel develops shirts and blouses made of functional fibres, which are equally impressing wih its functional features as with its design. The brand uses breathable functional fibres that conduct moisture to the outside and dry quickly. Therefore these shirts and blouses are perfect for the next hiking trip, but are also absolutely suitable for everyday use.
