We have finally found a fabric that will likely last the rest of our lifetimes and we have made a small batch for you, our pioneers. Read on below if you want to own one of the first pairs.
Please note that the fit is roomier than in The Pants (more similar to The Shorts). If you are unsure about size, reach out via our chat or through email
We have long searched for a material with exceptional durability that also feels comfortable next to the skin. Finally we have found our match in a fiber which is 15 times stronger than steel, while at the same time being light enough to float on water.
The fiber, Dyneema, is the world’s strongest and lightest. It's so tough it was originally used to stop bullets, and has since secured oil rigs, container ships and repaired human joints.
Now we will use it to create the Forever Pants.
Besides being lightweight and virtually indestructible, Dyneema is also supple (feels like silk on your skin), thermally conductive (it keeps your body cool), chemically inert, hydrophobic (water repellant) and UV-resistant.
The list goes on for what this fiber can do and what it adds up to is a fabric that feels soft and cool against the skin while being extremely durable towards wear and tear.
We have tested this fabric since early spring and have now secured a small amount for a first series.
Weighing in at 400 gsm (grams per square meter), our Swedish woven fabric has a substantial look and feel. Even so, the fabric feels incredibly soft against the skin. The Dyneema fibres are quietly working their magic as they're tightly woven together with polyamide to create a beautiful twill weave.
The end result comes in one color - black. With the looks to make it to a wedding while at the same time being nearly indestructible.
The fabric fires on all cylinders except one, stretch. To compensate, we have optimized the design and fit to allow for full freedom of movement. First off, the fit is more loosely cut around the thighs and less tapered down the leg. In addition, we've introduced a knee length gusset to free up the movement along the inside of the legs.
Pick the same size you wear in The Pants or The Shorts. The fit will be roomier than The Pants with the top part leaning more towards The Shorts and finishing with a straight cut past the knees.
