NanoPro

What is it?
NanoPro is Marmots most comfortable waterproof/breathable coating technology ever. NanoPros superior microporous structure is dynamically air permeable, allowing for air exchange to help shed excess moisture vapor without compromising the waterproofness or windproofness of the garment.

How does it work?
Marmot NanoPro coating utilizes a new microporous technology with a pore structure that is 30 % smaller than previous generations. These very small, very densely packed pores allow for enhanced breathability while maintaining excellent waterproofness. This pore structure is also air permeable allowing for dynamic air exchange. This air permeability combined with the enhanced breathability creates a fabric that is incredible comfort through a wide range of activities.

What are the benefits of this technology?

Marmot NanoPro is the most technically advanced 2.5 Layer coating on the market. Offering unprecedented performance in a coated fabric with its Dynamic Air Permeability, and long term durable waterproofness. Marmot NanoPro is 43% more breathable then Marmot’s previous coating technology. This advancement in fabric technology brings a new level of performance to value conscious consumers.
