TIMMERMADE MONTHLY ORDERING CAPACITY HAS $783.00 DOLLARS OF SPACE REMAINING! Monthly capacity will reset at 12am EST on the first of the month. Once the capacity gets close to filling up, a banner will appear that shows the remaining space. If the item says "available on backorder" but the cart function is missing or inoperative, this means there is not enough capacity for the item you are trying to add, or that there is no capacity left. If you see "out of stock" labels on items while the monthly capacity is still open, this means that only certain items are available to order, usually the items in the On-the-Shelf page. These are usually made available throughout the month, even when made-to-order purchases are filled up. Timmermade production capacity is limited. Every item is handmade, to-order, all in-house. Thank you for your patience.

Dyneema Composite Fabric Pant

$175.00

This is a made-to-order item. Not in stock. See the home page for the made-to-order lead time.

Due to the lack of stretch, wrinkled texture, and possibility for shrinkage, it makes sense to oversize DCF garments.

This is fully impermeable rain protection built from 0.51 ounce per square yard Dyneema Composite Fabric in olive tint. It has incredible warmth for its weight.  It’s also a full vapor barrier. There is an adjustable shock cord waist and the cuff is available in two sizes with either a permanent elastic or adjustable shock cord.

Approximately 1.5oz (medium)

The qualities of Dyneema Composite Fabrics are well known as a super light weight and super strong shelter material. However, it also has qualities that make it an amazing clothing material. First, it is about as waterproof as it get’s. Fully impermeable. There is no question about “wetting out”. There is no water repellent treatment (DWR) that can rinse off into the environment. Water and moisture simply do not move through it. Second, because of the above quality, it is shockingly warm for little weight. Since it is a full barrier, there is absolutely no evaporative cooling and no convection. You can throw this on over a wet layer and all the cold evaporative cooling stops. Third, due to the wrinkled and super light texture of DCF, it tends to hover off the surface of your skin or inner layer, leaving a warm air gap. Other types of rainwear will tend to stick to your skin, which negates the air gap and exposes your skin to convection from the outside.

Does it get moist inside from perspiration? Yes. I never find waterproof breathable fabrics to be very breathable and dry inside and there are many scenarios where they aren’t very waterproof from the outside either. In many situations, I’d rather be warm and a little moist from the inside with a lightweight garment than wet and cold from the outside with a much heavier garment. It should be noted that this is a garment best suited for cold and wet conditions.

This item is also used as a vapor barrier liner to stop perspiration from entering your clothing during activity or sleep system at night when condensation is an issue.
