No Sweat - Blacks launches its new Technicals range made using eVent® fabrics
Breaking new ground in outdoor clothing, Blacks has incorporated eVent® fabrics technology into its new Technicals range. Tested and developed in conjunction with teams from Mountain Rescue England and Wales, the new Technicals range has withstood the harshest outdoor conditions.
Unlike any other laminates on the market, eVent® fabrics has built up a strong reputation for using the most breathable waterproof technology, allowing sweat to vent directly to the outside of the garment in one easy step.
Through a unique process called Direct Venting™, eVent® moves moisture away from the body, keeping you cool and reducing inner jacket condensation. This also keeps you dry no matter what the activity or conditions. Simply put, eVent® fabrics let the sweat out.™
Men's Lethbridge Jacket

Tested in variable conditions from 'winter mountaineering to sunny coastal brimbles' by Trail Magazine, they praised that 'the Lethbridge will do more than just keep you dry - it will also perform on technical days of scrambling or climbing.' They also commented that 'plenty of thought has gone into the design of this great jacket that is reassuringly technical.' March 07
