Surface Treatment

Polartec® Hardface® is a patented polymer surface treatment applied to enhance durability.

Fused at the fiber level, Hardface® increases abrasion resistance and water repellency. Select Hardface® styles feature DWR to add even greater water repellency. Breathability is not sacrificed by the Hardface® coating of each individual fiber. Hardface’s added fabric protection maintains performance quality and extends the life of garments.
