NIKWAX ANALOGY® WATERPROOF
What is Analogy?
The Nikwax Analogy system combines a water and wind repellent outer layer with what we call a “Pump Liner”. This proprietary system mimics the action of animal fur – pushing liquid water outwards to protect you from rain, condensation and perspiration, while protecting your insulation.
Key benefits:
- Two-layer construction keeps you warm and cozy by trapping still air.
- System works together to keep you dry from precipitation on the outside, and perspiration and condensation on the inside for the best feeling performance.
- Works just as effectively even in high humidity or very cold conditions.
- Water-repellency can be easily renewed for the lifetime of the garment with Nikwax Aftercare.
- The fabric is soft, strong, silent and durable.
How it works:
- Skin surface
- Baselayer worn next to the skin.
- Nikwax Analogy Pump Liner pumps water away from the body.
- Closely woven microfiber outer provides windproofing and Nikwax durable water-repellency. Air is trapped between Pump Liner and outer to give insulation.
- Wind and rain is deflected away from the body while perspiration and condensation as liquid water or water vapour can escape.
