The Men's Arc'teryx Atom Vest* in black is a proven performer across a range of seasons, landscapes and activities.
Previously known as the Atom LT Vest, it features versatile synthetic insulated mid layers with a high degree of weather resistance. If you're looking for something quick-drying, durable and still keeps you warm when damp, the gilet from the Atom series could be what you're looking for.
The Coreloft™ Compact synthetic insulation retains warmth if wet and withstands years of packing and unpacking, and the breathable, durable Tyono™ 20 shell resists wind and light weather. Stretch fleece side panels aid ventilation and freedom, and the entire vest packs into its own pocket.
*Formerly known as "Arc'teryx Atom LT Vest"

Getting colour into fabrics isn't as simple as you might think. Traditionally, fabrics are batch-dyed, but more brands are becoming aware of the water and carbon saving ability of solution dyeing. That's a 90% reduction in water usage and 96% reduction in CO2 emissions - certainly not to be dismissed. This technique adds pigment to the fibre while the plastic is still molten - so, yes, it is only applicable to plastic based yarns.
A secondary eco dyeing technique is the use of natural pigments. Plant based dyes are sourced from sustainable crops and applied in a cold-water process, which can use 65% less water than traditional methods.
By recycling fabrics, we are not only stopping extra waste heading to landfill but also reducing the need for virgin fabrics to be created. Recycled fabrics can be anything from recycled polyester to recycled cotton and where recycled cotton is used, it's often offcuts from factory floors that would otherwise end up in landfill.
