Repreve®

Obermeyer is pleased to partner with Repreve® and weave nearly 70% of this season's line with their proprietary fabric. Repreve® transforms recycled bottles into a repurposed fiber with embedded properties like wicking, adaptive warming and cooling, water repellency, insulation, and more…. Reliable, durable quality that you can feel good about. A better business, a better planet.

Stretch Insulation

Stretch Insulation

We integrate stretch insulation in our Fusion collection, featuring 3M™ Thinsulate™ Stretch Insulation that moves with the outer fabric so your outerwear moves when you do. The elastometric insulation guarantees a layer of warmth that gives your outerwear the freedom to expand and contract along with the outer fabric. Years of research in the Aspen mountains have taught us that stretch is invaluable for proper fit and range of motion for sporting activities. 

 

Stretch fabrics

Stretch fabrics

Whether it's 2-way or 4-way stretch technology, our stretch fabrics provide you with a superior, dynamic fit that moves with you throughout the entire day of activity on the slopes. This approach works through our different fits as well, so whether you're wearing one of our form-fitting ski suits, or a fit that's more loose and layer-able, your materials will move like they're a part of you.
