Bjorn Daehlie Jacket Conscious W

The jacket has taken focus on nature and the environment to new heights. We borrow nature every day for exercising and competition. Now is the time for us to give something back in the form of a sustainable product that will also be one of our best jackets, designed for high-intensity training. With the Conscious range, we have created the most sustainable product ever, without compromising on quality and functionality. The material on the outside of the jacket is made from 80% Tencel and 20% merino wool. A perfect blend of sustainable Tencel and merino wool ensures optimal insulation, fast drying, and good moisture wicking. Just like merino wool, Tencel adapts to varying body temperature and has an incredibly soft, smooth surface. The material made from Tencel and merino wool has been developed specially for the Conscious range. The design department at Dæhlie found the optimal blend of the two fibers, after extensive testing. The knitted mesh panel on the back and under the sleeves comes in an elastic material made from 73% Tencel and 28% merino wool for the best combination of ventilation, temperature control, and movement. Two zippered hand pockets and the front zipper are made from recycled material. The front zipper zips right up with comfortable chin protection. Elastic cuffs at the bottom of the sleeves and a waistband that can be individually adjusted. This jacket has been developed with sustainability and temperature control as the most important features.

Tencel® from Lyocell is a fiber developed from the cellulose pulp from the sustainable eucalyptus tree. This tree grows fast and is planted on FSC-certified tree farms without genetic modification or artificial irrigation. The chemicals used to produce the fiber are administered in a closed system. This means that the solvent is recycled, which reduces hazardous waste.
The fiber is as strong as polyester and as soft as silk. Its breathability, moisture wicking, and antibacterial properties make it ideal for exercising at both high and low intensity.
