Power Shield® FR

ORIGINAL SOFT SHELL

Polartec® Power Shield® FR is the original soft shell fabric, evolved with certified flame resistant protection.

This unique material protects against the elements, but without the stiff hand and loud noise of a hard shell. Power Shield® FR defends against strong winds, rain, snow, and even abrasive surfaces. And unlike other protective layers, our air permeable functional layer can easily release excess heat and moisture vapor for dry conditions both inside and out.

Armor Against the Elements.

About Power Shield® FR Technology

Polartec® Power Shield® FR was the first soft shell to combine breathable comfort with high performance weather resistance.

This 3-layer fabric system is available with multiple interior surface options for greater design flexibility. The outer surface blocks wind while deflecting moisture. Unlike other membrane technologies, sweat vapor moves outside easily through the permeable functional layer without the need for high internal pressure. Power Shield® FR is the pinnacle of soft shell performance.
