Technical fabrics are advanced textiles engineered with specialized properties such as waterproof, windproof, and water-repellent capabilities, designed to provide superior performance and protection while maintaining elegance and comfort. These high-performance materials combine cutting-edge technology with luxury aesthetics, offering exceptional durability, thermal insulation, and weather resistance for sophisticated outerwear applications.
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.
Yves Salomon primarily uses high-performance polyester fabrics as the base for their technical garments. These fabrics are engineered to be waterproof and windproof, featuring specialized polyurethane membranes that provide exceptional weather resistance while maintaining breathability.
The brand incorporates sophisticated membrane systems, including antibacterial graphene membranes in select pieces. These membranes offer superior protection against wear and weather while maintaining the fabric's technical performance over time.
The brand also employs technical cotton fabrics that offer increased resistance to adverse weather conditions while ensuring optimal breathability. These materials provide effective protection against wind and rain while maintaining the natural comfort of cotton.
Yves Salomon applies various technical treatments to their fabrics, including DWR (Durable Water Repellent) finishes that allow moisture to bead and roll off the fabric surface. Some pieces feature laminated fabrics with special coatings developed specifically for wear resistance.
