SympaTex Climate Technology
2012 Focus on Waterproof and Breathable Footwear Technology
The perfect combination of 3D drainage upper technology and the SympaTex membrane allows the hydrophilic inner lining of the 3D upper to quickly absorb moisture generated during foot movement—even sweat that has already condensed. The patented 3D drainage fibers can transfer the absorbed moisture to the SympaTex membrane within the upper in just two seconds, rapidly dispersing it to maximize surface area and expel it out of the shoe, keeping feet dry during activity.
The CARAVA Kamil outdoor shoe is now on the market, with the autumn/winter 2012 collection soon to be released.
