Waterproof, Windproof & Water-Repellent Technical Fabrics

Technical Excellence Meets Refined Protection

At Yves Salomon, functional fabrics do not compromise on elegance. Our Iconics parkas and down jackets are engineered from advanced technical fabrics that act as a stylish shield against rain, wind, and snow—providing protection without sacrificing form or finesse .

Waterproof:
Virtually all items in the collection feature fully waterproof exteriors, ensuring confidence in harsh weather — from sudden rain to snowy gusts .

Water-Repellent:
Some select models add an advanced water-repellent finish, letting moisture bead and roll off the fabric before it can penetrate .

Windproof:
The dense weave of technical fabrics shields the body from wind chill, creating a calm, cozy microclimate inside.

Featured Pieces include:
Belted down jackets in waterproof technical fabric, trimmed luxuriously with fox and rabbit fur .

Reversible parkas combining water-repellent technical fabric with long-haired mink fur—a masterful union of function and opulence.

Thermal Insulation Superior Warmth, Feather-Light Feel
Warmth is elevated to an art form in the Iconics collection through technical insulation, designed to trap heat while maintaining sleek, refined silhouettes:

Premium Down Filling offers exceptional warmth with minimal bulk—making even the longest parkas light on the frame yet superior in warmth .

Tailored Silhouettes: From short down jackets with lambswool trims to long, raglan-sleeved coats, each item balances generous insulation with elegant design.

"A-Line" Down Jackets deliver a modern, flattering fit with insulation that
complements the form rather than overwhelms it .
