FOXWEAR reflects the feeling of simplicity, meeting the basic needs of active people living in cool and downright cold climates. For skiing, cycling, running, and most anything.
Ever since I was a kid I've had an aversion to being bundled up.
My Mom lovingly dressed me in warm bulky clothes wintertimes. When the sun shone later in the day and pulling off heavy clothes was a chore I became unbearably uncomfortable.
I think the people who have developed outdoor fabrics like Gore Tex or Power Shield had similar childhood experiences.
We watch as they come out with their latest fabrics which will keep the nasty weather out while allowing our bodies to do whatever we want. Here we are in 2011 and I'm able to make anyone outfits of Polartec® NeoShell® material.
Hooray! What would you like?
Polartec® NeoShell® »
---Click here or see it at http://foxwear.net/Neo.html ---- is now available in a range of combinations including super lightweight flat tricot backed styles to luxurious high loft backs with extremely durable woven face fabrics. The new hydrophobic, microporous polyurethane membrane truly offers the best of both worlds.
All jackets and pants made with this fabric are $120
Would you like to see sample swatches of it?
Power Shield Pro is a middle to heavy-weight Power Shield. Available in dark gray, you can have pants or a jacket made of it now. It's used as the other styles of Power Shield seen here are used.
We have an overstock supply of Retro-X and Windbloc fabric so the price for any size regular style of jacket is now $70. Regular style means without any panels of Powder Stretch. This jacket comes with two front-facing pockets.
You've been asking for me to use wool, especially the Merino wool. I've found it and can now offer shirts which are a blend of this wool/Polartec fleece.
Some of the properties are softness, resisting odor, moving moisture away from the skin and regulating body temperature.
These fabrics are a bi-layer construction, with the high-wick poly on the inner surface and the Merino wool on the outer surface.
Rather than being made in China, they are all made right here in Idaho. And most amazing is the price is the same as the Power Dry shirts.
FOXWEAR's fleece tights made from fabrics by the folks at Polartec are the best stretch insulation on the market today. They work perfectly as a base layer and are also a great alternative to long underwear. A minimum of details and a stream-lined fit keep the tights trim. Please check out our products and fabrics pages for details. Regardless of the weather or your type of activity, FOXWEAR'S products will keep you happy --- moving or still.
I'll help guide you through the glossy magazines and catalogues that push their 'high-tech jargon' and so we'll get you what you really want and need. It looks like Dave got what he was really looking for: Click Here -- from a bicycling forum.
Here is a great description of how Power Shield types of fabric works and how to maintain the weather-resisting properties they have. Look at this
WEBSITE of theirs.
We're now using Polartec's WindPro Hard Face material for jackets and pants as well as Power Shield.
Sometimes you meet people when traveling you won't forget. While at the coast of Ghana staying at a peaceful resort run by Dutch people, I met Margrieta who was biking through Ghana.

Highly recommended is a friend from Amsterdam, an artist and good friend, Jouke Kooistra.
His artwork reflects the love he has for aboriginal art and music. I have some of the boomarangs he sold me. Please take a look at his work. Shipping is less than you might think:
He's called "Magic White Fella"
