Description FOREST NXL & FOREST NXT
The main advantage of the FOREST NXL & FOREST NXT used outer fabric Nomex® NXT uses a special rib weave, which significantly reduces the fibrillation (greying) of the outer fabric. In the rib-weave, the high Kevlar®®- content is on the reverse and the more washable Nomex®component is positioned on the front of the outer fabric.
A dense, balanced thread count keeps pilling values down to 4-5 while maintaining higher tear resistance.
