Lumberjeans
Woven with ultra-strong Dyneema®, we’ve rebuilt jeans to be the toughest pants in the world again.
- 13.7 oz. Italian Dyneema® denim
- Tough enough to survive 75kmph falls
- Knees and seat reinforced with Cordura layers
The first ever pair of jeans were made for a lumberjack. Built for life in the woods, they were designed to be exceptionally tough – the strongest pants anywhere in the world at the time. But over the last 150 years, jeans have changed to the point where the original lumberjacks wouldn’t even recognise them. Skintight pants with premade rips are about as far away from the origin of jeans as you can get.
So we’ve gone back to the first days of jeans to build them as they were meant to be built. We’ve worked with the world’s most fabled mills, and the master craftsmen of denim, and combined that with the toughest modern day materials to create some of the strongest jeans ever made. The Black edition of our Lumberjeans are woven with Dyneema® fibres which are 15x stronger than steel, and reinforced with Cordura panels. They’re the jeans lumberjacks would have wanted.
Planet Earth Swim Shorts
High performance swim shorts engineered to work anywhere on Earth.
Technical Details
The material we’ve used was originally designed for compression gear so it’s incredibly stretchy and strong.
Hard-wearing but soft next to your skin
You probably won’t have ever worn a pair of knitted swim shorts before, but they represent the holy grail of sports gear – incredibly strong, stretchy, soft and lightweight all at the same time. By blending elastane with a super tough nylon yarn, we’ve created a unique knitted fabric. With millions of microscopic knitted loops, it manages to feel soft, stretchy and cooling next to your skin, while staying hard-wearing and smooth to the touch on the outside.
Everything that makes these shorts amazing for the oceans makes them phenomenal back on land too.
WATER REPELLENT AND FAST DRYING
The shorts are treated with a durable water repellent coating that’s completely free from toxic fluorocarbons. Ocean spray will simply roll off them. And the same technology means the shorts dry rapidly out of the water, especially in direct sunlight. When you want to hang them up to dry you’ll find a reinforced drying loop just above the waistband.
The ultrasoft lining is breathable, stretchy and treated with an antibacterial finish.
The shorts’ invisible tech blocks invisible UV rays
Just like sunblock, fabric can be rated for its ability to reduce your exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet light. The Ultraviolet Protection Factor, or UPF, determines how much more protection your skin would have while wearing that piece of clothing. A UPF rating of 15 for example would give your skin 15x more protection than it would have if it was unprotected. These shorts are so densely knitted that the fabric scores a UPF of 50+ which is the highest possible rating, giving you the highest possible protection.
