AIRPUSH Created with the challenging activities Tenson people enjoy as inspiration, Air Push is our inhouse developed material that delivers superior breathability and comfort wherever you are and whatever you’re doing.Fully recyclable and featuring density that is 20 to 30% higher than conventional materials, its fine pores allow moisture on the inside to be wicked away while at the same time, preventing water permeation from the outside. As well as outstanding water resistance, we created Air Push to be strong yet light. This means that it doesn’t stiffen and hinder freedom of movement when the temperature drops.Good news for those of us who see cold weather as a challenge as opposed to an obstacle. And when you finally come back indoors, Air Push allows your garment to dry faster – so you can get back outside again.
