G-1000 Properties
Hardwearing
G-1000 is very resistant to wear, in fact it is twice as resistant as denim. Combined with its low weight, this makes G-1000 garments perfect for both travelling and life in the great outdoors.
Adaptable
Simply by ironing on some Greenland Wax, you can easily adapt your garment to the current weather conditions. Greenland Wax also extends the life of your garment by increasing its durability.
Water resistant
Greenland Wax makes G-1000 garments extremely resistant to rain and moisture. This means that you can wear your G-1000 garments during brief showers - even if the fabric does get wet, it will dry quickly.
Windproof
G-1000's tight weave makes it virtually windproof. Impregnated, the fabric offers complete protection from the biting wind.
Breathability
One of G-1000's most impressive properties is its excellent breathability – it efficiently releases moisture from the body, which is particularly practical for strenuous outdoor activities.
Mosquito safe
The tightly woven fabric keeps mosquitoes and other flying insects away from your skin, which is a huge plus both in the mountains and forest as well as on trips to warmer climates.
UV protection
The densely woven fabric provides almost 100% protection from the sun’s alpha and beta rays.
The tight weave of the fabric keeps mosquitoes and other pesky insects away from your skin – extremely practical both in the mountains and the forest, or when travelling to warm climates.
