INFINITY CHAMOIS: We don’t use the word “infinity” lightly, but that’s how long you’re going

to feel you can ride in this chamois. With high-density inserts, perforation for breathability,

a super-soft, stretch surface and 14 mm of open-cell foam exactly where you need it, this

chamois goes the distance. Any distance.

STEALTH CHAMOIS: Utilizing advanced molding technology and materials; we continue to

improve the Stealth chamois for a wide range of distances and preferences. It is formed in an

anatomical mold with few components, providing a simple yet highly developed, lightweight

pad for great protection and comfort. The seamless “monocoque” design works because it

is pre-shaped to fit your anatomy. The different levels and foam thicknesses will optimize

protection at pressure points and the stretch fabric is anti-microbial and highly breathable. The

open-cell foam and perforation promotes rapid evaporation of perspiration, a key to the comfort

of any chamois.

STEALTH TRI CHAMOIS: Our tri chamois is a one-piece contour molded pad that is the

fastest-drying pad on the market. It’s the perfect size for the triathlete who needs to be able

to wear this in comfort during a swim, bike and run. Open cell phone does not absorb moisture

and the polyester surface is fast-drying and anti-microbial.

High-tech fabrics and products only work well if they allow the

body to achieve equilibrium between the input and output of

heat and moisture. The correct balance of breathability, moisture

management and temperature control are critical for maintaining

optimal performance. At Descente we call this “Aqualibrium”.

We take the finest technical yarns available and create fabrics

that provide all the benefits of natural fabrics and the advanced

performance of modern technology. The result is the

best of all worlds, and the finest baselayers made.

The Core symbol seen throughout the catalog indicates our key products. We guarantee these noted products for reorder throughout summer 2010.

coRe PRodUctsHigh-tech fabrics and products only work well if they allow the body to achieve equilibrium between the input and output of heat and moisture. The correct balance of breathability, moisture management, wind resistance, and CLO factor are critical for maintaining optimal temperature and dryness during activity. We at Descente call this “Aqualibrium”. Functional design for all of our products is guided by the concept of Aqualibrium. No other manufacturer of sports apparel understands this dynamic more, or puts it to better use, than we do.

There is a fine line between “rack appeal” and how a garment fits when used for its intended purpose. At Descente, we are committed to never sacrificing functionality for rack appeal and to maintaining product integrity. While Ride Position Fit is a design and product development guideline, it’s also an effective sales and marketing concept. We don’t design cycling products for store changing rooms, standing straight up, facing a mirror. Examples of RPF can be found in our front and back rise differentials, contoured collars, sleeve lengths, tapered and contoured panel constructions, glove finger lengths and others.

AERO-X™: Uses a hydrophilic (moisture attractive) Nylon on the outer layer that “pulls” moisture to the surface and a hydrophobic (water repelling) polyester on the inside that “pushes” moister outward. This “push/pull” moisture management, along with the perfect weight and compression, yields the ultimate fabric in bike short comfort. 64% Nylon / 17% Polyester / 19% Lycra™ Spandex.

BLISS: A textured Nylon/Spandex fabric that offers a buttery soft hand, great compression and durability. Bliss is made of 88% Nylon and 12% Spandex.

COOLMATIC®: 100% Polyester with a slightly open surface structure for an advanced wicking capability and cooling feature. This lightweight hot-weather fabric is soft and extraordinarily comfortable. 50+ Uv protective.

MICRO-COLdOuT™: 78% Nylon and 22% Lycra™ fabric that provides durability, warmth, compression, stretch and moisture management. dRYZONE™: With the combination of Polypropylene on the inside and polyester on the outside this is the fastest drying, lightweight fabric available. And with modern manufacturing, this polypro doesn’t develop odor or shrink, holding its shape and keeping you dry and comfortable.50+ Uv protective.

ESCHLER FLASH MESH™: No other manufacturer produces a better-quality warp knit than Eschler of Switzerland. Flash Mesh offers perfectly balanced stretch and compression with a beautiful, soft feel in an “almost mesh” construction. By combining hydrophobic polyester on the inside with a hydrophilic nylon surface Flash Mesh provides superior moisture management and “flash” drying: up to two times faster drying than the leading alternative brand. 60% Nylon, 23% Polyester, 17% Spandex. Lycra Power™ Certified.

H2ZERO™: 100% Polyester dual-denier yarn employs “denier-gradient” and “vapor-channel” technology to provide great moisture management. This lightweight fabric moves with the body and breathes in medium to high temperature ranges.

ICEFIL™: An innovative new material with a multistep cooling technology designed to provide cooling comfort in warm and humid conditions. Icefil cools by up to 5 degrees, is moisture absorbing with 2-way air circulation, antibacterial and offers 50+ Uv protection.

PITTARd’S WR100-X™: The finest leather in the world, Pittard’s WR100-X is permanently water resistant, sweat resistant, will remain supple, is extraordinarily durable and offers unique breathability with this Micro-vent version.

RESISTEX® Carbon: Composed of a state of the art yarn with an active carbon core. This fabric possesses anti-static properties, which protects against electrical interference and provides numerous benefits including enhanced circulation, lower heart rate, heat dissipation, accelerated evaporation of humidity, and anti-itch characteristics.

REVOLuTIONAL®: very thin, opaque, highly compressive and lightweight, Revolutional is a unique fabric. With a shiny finish it is both fashion oriented and highly technical. This 44 gauge fabric is 78% Nylon and 22% Lycra™ Spandex. Lycra Power™ Certified.

SCHOELLER COLdBLACK™: Most dark-colored clothing absorbs 90% of the sun’s heat, but fabrics that have been treated with Schoeller’s Coldblack™ technology during the dying process actually reflect 80% of heat rays while also offering a minimum of UPF 30+ protection against harmful ultraviolet rays. The company keeps the technology a closely guarded secret, but the results speak for themselves: Temperature tests at independent labs found that a Coldblack™-treated jersey held under infrared lamps stayed 10°F cooler on the interior and 22°F cooler on the surface than a regular jersey.

SPEEd™: A unique and advanced honeycomb construction provides dynamic thermoregulation. This 40 gauge Nylon/Lycra™ offers great compression with a very lightweight yet opaque knit. We use a bright yarn on this fabric that reflects Uv and gives a very sophisticated appearance. Lycra Power™ Certified.

VELOM™: This super-lightweight, micro-denier woven Nylon fabric allows us to make an entire jacket that is less than 3 ounces. The fabric is water and wind resistant, very breathable, quiet, durable and extremely packable.

WAVE™: This fine Italian fabric provides moisture management through vapor-channel construction. It is lightweight, very opaque, and especially resistant to abrasion and pilling. This 40 gauge fabric is quick drying, provides 4- way balanced compression and has a unique “twill” appearance. Lycra Power™ Certified.
