Both HydroFoil™ Endure and standard HydroFoil™ are constructed from the same fabrics and waterproof-breathable membrane. However, HydroFoil™ Endure’s outer fabric has a unique, PFAS-free, silicone-impregnated water repellent treatment. Individual fibres are wrapped with silicone, creating an integrated barrier that is not easily worn off or washed out.
Wet fabrics severely inhibit breathability. Compared to our standard HydroFoil™, and most other DWR and C0 finishes, HydroFoil™ Endure stays dryer for longer in the rain, so your garment maintains its high level of breathability during each ride and over time - making it actually more breathable and more comfortable in wet conditions.
