To make winter fishing suits, manufacturers utilize mostly synthetic materials able to retain heat, repel moisture from the outside and drain condensate from the inside. Most often, they use:

Polartec. This brand includes a huge family of innovative fabrics (over 150 types), all of which are notable for their lightness, durability, ability to keep warm as good as wool, excellent protective and “breathing” properties, and easy maintenance.

Windblock is a material that is a perfect shield against frosts, strong wind, snow and rain. This protection comes from a unique combination: outer fleece – membrane – inner fleece. It is a waterproof, windproof, vapor wicking material, ideal for making winter outerwear.

Thinsulate is a widely used synthetic polyester insulation. It reliably protects people from cold at low temperatures (up to -40 degrees). Other features include lightness, elasticity, water resistance, wear resistance. Due to the special interlacing of fibers, Thinsulate forms an air cushion that makes a person comfortable and cozy.

Membrane fabric. Any modern material (including Polartec) with an ultra-thin polymer film with microscopic pores. The micropores have a very important function – they ensure one-way water permeability. That is, from the inside the moisture comes out unhindered, but not in the opposite direction.
