l2 - mid layer & thermal layer:
provides additional thermal insulation and aids in transferring body moisture away from the skin due to its breathable properties.

techstretch™ storm’s unique patented single layer woven technology combines softshell and fleece into one, striking the ideal balance between breathability, wind resistance, and water repellency. its tightly woven surface blocks wind and water without lamination, ensuring long-lasting durability. with its single layer construction, the fabric is lighter and less bulky compared to two or three layer fabrics. its soft, plush interior keeps warm air close, maintaining warmth while allowing for full body movement during activities and dissipating excessive heat simultaneously.

this fabric is perfect for outdoor and sports enthusiasts, especially during unpredictable weather conditions, ensuring you stay comfortably warm and dry. regular two or three layer knitted fabrics tend to release more microfibers during washes due to delamination or loose knitting. with techstretch™ storm’s distinct single layer woven construction, fibers remain tightly woven together, minimizing fiber release into water. the single layer means no foam or adhesive between layers, simplifying dyeing and reducing several steps in production - conserving valuable energy and water resources.

at la sportiva, we are devoted outdoor enthusiasts who continuously refine our products, test their performance, and seek innovative solutions. our headquarters are nestled in the mountains, and we're committed to improving eco-sustainable practices in both daily operations and product development.

the term ‘microfiber’ describes fibers released from clothing during production, use, and at the end of their life, which contribute to environmental pollution. microfibers can come from any textile, including both synthetic (plastic) and natural (cellulose/protein) materials. synthetic clothing releases tiny plastic shards known as microfibers (particles smaller than 5 mm) during washes. to tackle synthetic microfiber pollution, la sportiva has introduced new fabrics that significantly reduce microfiber shedding.
