Paramo Directional Clothing Systems

The difference between Páramo Directional waterproofs and conventional breathable waterproofs lies in the 'Directional' function. The fabrics we use do not merely hold water back (waterproof) or passively pass moisture vapour (breathe), but actively 'Direct' liquid water into the right spot.

What makes Páramo different?

1. Soft, but very strong fabrics
   Páramo Directional Waterproofs are much softer than coated or membrane based garments, and yet they are just as strong!
2. Warmth
   Being warm as well as dry means you can leave behind some of your insulation layers. Adjustable ventilation provides comfort in warm as well as cool conditions.
3. Quiet fabrics
   The rustle and crunch of coated or membrane fabrics is a thing of the past with Páramo. Páramo Directional Waterproofs are made using tough and flexible fabrics.
4. Keeps on working!
   You could fill a Directional Waterproof garment with pins, take them out, wear the garment in the rain and still stay dry! Puncture of the outer or inner fabric will not lead to leakage.
5. Renewability
   The performance of Páramo Directional Waterproofs can be indefinitely renewed by caring for them with Nikwax products. Conventional membranes on the other hand, can eventually fracture and crack and then cannot be repaired.
6. Keeping you dry in high humidity conditions
   Both conventional waterproofs and Soft Shell fail in conditions of high humidity. Páramo continues to pump water away from you whatever the humidity.
7. Rapid recovery
   Páramo's ability to recover rapidly means that even when static it pumps the liquid out. Fabric structures and water-repellency means it carries on working, even with the body cooling.
