STATIC / Adrift Liner

[Manager's comment]

This is a sleeping bag liner made with Octa®CPCP®.

The part that touches your skin is brushed, so it's recommended as a booster for your existing sleeping bag. It can also be used as a summer sleeping bag, or for sleeping in mountain huts or in your car. So, if you have a winter sleeping bag and this liner, you'll be safe all year round.

Although it is brushed, the mesh structure allows air to pass through, so you can stay warm by combining it with a sleeping bag cover or emergency bivvy to keep out the wind.

By the way, there is no zipper, and it opens and closes with a drawstring at the neck.

[Excerpt from product manufacturer]

The outdoor wear and active insulation category has expanded rapidly in recent years.

Overseas brands have been the pioneers in product development. One of the active insulation filling materials is TEIJIN Octa®CPCP®, which is lightweight and has excellent heat retention.

STATIC chose to use a single layer of Octa®CPCP®, which is normally made with nylon for the lining. This is because brands that develop their products in high altitude, dry climates pack Octa®CPCP® in a shell material, which makes it heavy and difficult to layer in Japan, where it is often carried as thermal clothing.

Thanks to its special mesh structure, it is extremely light, has an extremely high heat-to-weight ratio, and is highly portable, making it useful all year round.

[Use of recycled materials]

Octa® fabric is made from two types of fibers: polyester wooly fiber and polyester hollow octopus fiber.

Of this, 53.6% of the woolly yarn has been replaced with recycled polyester (ECOPET®), reducing the environmental impact.

46.4% is regular polyester hollow octopus cross section yarn.

By using recycled polyester, compared to virgin polyester Octa®CPCP®, CO2 emissions during fabric manufacturing have been reduced by 23%. (*Calculation by Teijin Frontier Co., Ltd. CO2 emissions from raw materials (polymers) to fabric shipping)

[ What is Octa®CPCP®? ]

Octa®CPCP® is a mesh fleece material that combines irregular cross-section hollow polyester brushed fibers that act as heat-retaining material with the outer mesh material.

This polyester fabric is characterized by its lightness, warmth, and ability to wick heat away. It is usually used as a lining, but for STATIC it is used as a standalone fleece.

Its features are:

■Lightweight: Approximately half the weight of polyester fibers of the same diameter

■Sweat-wicking and quick-drying: Lightweight, about half the weight of polyester fibers of the same diameter

■ Heat insulation: Dead air trapped in the space created by the hollow section and eight protrusions provides heat insulation.

*OEKO-TEX® certified

OEKO-TEX® is a globally recognized mark of safety in the textile business, certifying products that meet the world's highest standards of safety, covering over 350 types of hazardous substances, far exceeding Japanese safety standards, and certifying sustainable factories that take into consideration the burden on people and the environment involved in production.

[Manufacturer description]

STATIC is the first eco-friendly outdoor brand from Japan. The apparel industry is one of the most environmentally conscious industries in the world. Outdoor wear is no exception. In the midst of a changing natural environment due to global warming and other factors, we want to continue our outdoor activities, which are our life's work.

We pondered what we could do in this situation, and the answer we came up with was the environmentally conscious outdoor brand "STATIC."
