Highlight on Musto's MPX Offshore clothing technology
MPX GORE-TEX® products use a lighter weight version of the HPX GORE-TEX® Ocean Technology® membrane.
Laminated between inner and outer materials it creates an extremely durable, waterproof and highly breathable
fabric. MPX GORE-TEX® products are ideal for offshore and coastal racing and cruising. The MPX GORE-TEX® Drysuit
is ideal for marine dinghy and keelboat racing.
The fabric allows moisture vapour from inside the suit to 'breathe out', whilst stopping any sea or rainwater getting
in. This is achieved by having microscopic holes in the membrane, large enough to let water vapour out, but much
too small to let water droplets in.
Laminated to the GORE-TEX® membrane are inner and outer fabrics. The outer fabric is a hardwearing woven nylon to give the overall fabric the strength that is required.
MPX GORE-TEX® Race is ideal for high activity, high performance sailing such as racing round the cans.
