Infin8Tis the new fabric of Snugpaks flagship 'Softie' range of
sleeping bags. It has a new luxuriously textured finish and incorporates the
special Infin8T weave, designed specifically for Snugpak by long term fabric
partners, Perseverance Mills, manufacturers of Pertex®.
Pertex®
Is the brand name for Pereseverance Mills UK made, high
performance, lightweight nylon. The brand leader in sleeping bag casing
fabrics Pertex uses many thousands of bundles of microfine yarn within its
construction. The capillaries created between these yarns actively draw
moisture away from the source and spread it across the surface area allowing
it to more readily evaporate. As the moisture is evaporating from the fabric,
and not from the occupant, chilling is dramatically reduced.
Softie or 'superfine high-thermal' is a combination of fibres with
different crimp systems and surface finishes. Some are crimped, some are
curled and some just left as they are. The random nature of the process
results in a product that closely resembles the structure of natural down and
the way it performs. The yarns used are staple yarns as in natural insulations
(as opposed to continuously extruded as in most synthetic fills). The fibres
have now been updated with special binders and treatments for an excellent
combination of softness and durability. Softie is extremely lightweight, and
has excellent re-loft abilities, when unpacked.
Profiling - This bag is a 'profiled' (unquilted) bag which uses the 'no
stitch through' method of construction. Most traditionally constructed
sleeping bags have quilted stitches to hold the bag and fibres in place.
Whilst developing new resins to enhance the softness of our bags we came
across a blend which gives a remarkable degree of strength and structure, with
self supporting fibres, allowing us to remove all the stitch lines and cold
spots that can occur with quilted bags. It also helps with re-loft as the
'Softie' filling is not held back by stitches. We estimate that by 'profiling'
we have increased the loft of our bags by up to 30%, without adding anything
to the weight or packsize.
