By a solvent-free lamination process, HDry bonds the waterproof/breathable membrane directly to the upper material, blocking water at the outermost layer and so eliminating moisture accumulation between the upper and the membrane. This allows to drastically reduce the need for DWR treatments (PFCs, PFAS) on the upper material, typically required in shoes with ‘bootie’ construction. In a nutshell, HDry technology combines outer material’s lower environmental impact and a significant increase in the component duration and therefore in the life of the shoe itself, a real feature of sustainability ...
