WIND RESISTANT AND WATER VAPOR PERMEABLE GARMENTS

摘要

An article of apparel having the ability to maintain a high MVTR while protecting the wearer from wind. The garment has a nanofiber layer bonded to, and in a face-to-face relationship with a fabric outer layer. Optionally a second fabric layer is bonded adjacent to and in a face-to-face relationship with the nanofiber layer and on the opposite side of the nanofiber layer from the first fabric layer. The fabric has a Frazier air permeability of no greater than about 7.6 m3/m2/min, and an MVTR of greater than about 500 g/m2/day.
