Sympatex Technologies, developers of laminated membranes and functional textiles, is set to launch its innovative “Seamless Climate Technology” with waterproof knitted legs at Lineapelle, the international leather trade fair, to be held in Milan, from September 9 to 11, 2015.

Together with its longtime Italian distribution partner PIDIGI S.p.A., Sympatex's functional textile specialists will present high-performance technologies as well as the latest laminate developments in the business area “footwear”.

Based on a highly functional upper technology, the functional specialist offers laminated knitted legs for the first time, which are 100 per cent waterproof and windproof as well as optimally breathable due to the extremely flexible Sympatex membrane. Another advantage lies in the seamless leg, which means it is taped with just one seam to the heel. Customers can choose between a wide range of colours and knitting patterns. The material mix of the 100 per cent recyclable “guaranteed green” Sympatex membrane and the hydrophobic, knitted upper offers allows a year-round use, according to a press release.

Sympatex partners like VAUDE (outdoor sports), Deeluxe (winter sports) and Rock Fall (protective workwear) use “Moisture-tech by Sympatex”. Due to the extremely absorbent material, moisture is quickly transported away from the foot and is kept away from the lining by an outward suction effect. The advantage is a high level of comfort and dry feet for maximum performance in all weathers.

As one of the worldwide leading producers, Sympatex Technologies has been a synonym for high-tech functional materials in clothing, footwear, accessories and technical fields. (GK)
