Swedish brand Craft create full wind protection in high-tech baselayer garments and accessories. The Windstopper® (WS) inserts are strategically placed expressing advanced body-mapping research: for the tops, the panels reach over the shoulder for best protection in a forward-leaning position on your skis.

In the pants, CRAFT integrates WS inserts over the sensitive crotch area and – for the long underpants – the thigh. While the WS insert in the front blocks the wind, the flat seam construction doesn’t chafe and the high elasticity of the soft material allows a tight, yet comfortable fit.

Craft’s Active Extreme fabric is also very lightweight and combines two fibres in a unique knitting technique: CoolMax® Hexachannel Extreme fibres on the inside guarantee great moisture management, whereas on the outer, Craft uses ultra-fine Thermolite® Polyester hollow-fibres with an excellent insulation capacity.
