Victorinox Travel Gear

Polyester Polyester is the generic name for fabrics made from the synthetic polyester fibre. A human-made polymer, it is used in one of the world’s most popular textiles. Highly resistant to shrinkage and wrinkling, polyester fabric retains its shape well even after heavy wear. Lightweight yet durable, stain-resistant and quick-drying, it’s ideal for outdoor gear. • Altmont Original • Altmont Professional • Architecture Urban2 • Vx Sport EVO Coated Polyester Coated polyester stands up to all weather conditions, thanks to its super resilient structure. Polyester woven yarn is wrapped in PVC, and a textured coating seals these materials. This many-layered fabric construction is impressive in terms of durability. It’s also water-repellent and scratch-proof. • Touring 2.0 Laminated Polyester Laminated polyester is typified by a lacquered finish that not only looks aesthetically sleek, but also delivers impressive durability. Expertly engineered to create optimum product life, it is created with an intricate production process that bonds a thermoplastic film to high-quality polyester. Standout in terms of its hard- wearing construction, it is water- and abrasion-resistant. • Touring 2.0 Recycled Polyester A polyester solution, PET (polyethylene terephthalate) resin forms the basis of this material. Made from post- consumer recycled PET bottles, the material boasts a super durable construction. Equally as robust, and technically just as all-weather-resistant. • Crosslight Nylon Nylon is essentially a human-made material renowned for its strength, durability and impressive elasticity. It has evolved technologically over the decades to further increase its elasticity and snag-resistant credentials. Nylon material is characterised by its silky texture. • Victoria Signature • Travel Accessories Edge • Travel Accessories 5.0 Nylon Cordura ® Cordura ® is the trademarked name given to a specific type of durable ripstop nylon. Ripstop nylon is woven using a reinforcing technique that delivers superior durability and minimises tear and rip damage even in the toughest conditions. Resilient yet definitely lightweight, this nylon has a distinctive breathable texture that feels like a second skin, yet is as strong as a thicker, coated fabric. • Werks Professional Cordura ® Ballistic Nylon Ballistic nylon is an extremely highly abrasion-resistant woven fabric. Standout in terms of its durability, strength and high-performance functionality, it works very well for heavy-use luggage, backpacks and brief- cases. In its construction, yarns are twisted together to create a luxury feel and 3D effect texture. • Werks Traveler 6.0 Softside Nappa Leather Nappa leather is intricately crafted using calf, goat or lamb’s hide. Revered for its luxury feel, it differentiates itself from other leathers by its fine, super-smooth and breathable texture. Arguably one of the softest leathers on the market, it undergoes a specialised tanning process to deliver its supple, smooth feel. • Altius 3.0 Vegetable- tanned Leather Harnessing the power of natural tannins, vegetable-tanned leather is made during a long, artisanal process. Hides are placed in a vat containing a natural tanning substance. This soaking process dehydrates the leather, and over time it softens and develops a beautiful, rich patina. The result is a unique patterned leather that becomes more supple with every use. • Altius Alox Virgin polycarbonate Makrolon is a 100%-pure amorphous polycarbonate produced by Covestro, a Bayer ® Group company. Compared to other thermoplastics, it’s known for its standout strength, transparency, heat resistance and dimensional stability. This virgin polycarbonate offers exceptional impact resistance but is still lightweight, making it a popular material for travel gear. • Airox • Lexicon Hardside • Lexicon Framed • Werks Traveler 6.0 Hardside SORPLAS™ by Sony Semiconductor Solutions Corporation SORPLAS™ is a high-performance recycled polycarbonate developed and provided by Sony Semiconductor Solutions Corporation. The shell material comprises up to 65% SORPLAS™, with the rest being virgin polycarbonate. Despite the high percentage of recycled material, SORPLAS™ meets Victorinox’s strict quality standards.
