W's Wisp Jacket

The design team at Houdini can’t let go of the idea of creating the perfect personal micro climate. Imagine a portable summer evening. Never too cold, but neither too hot. The secret to this is the airflow; allowing moisture and excess heat to get out, but keeping enough of the body’s natural heat in.

The inside of the Wisp Jacket is made from Polartec Alpha, a super light padding with an open structure. This creates a layer of heat but still lets the air flow freely. The durable outer fabric is called C9 Ripstop. It has just the right air permeability to keep you warm, but still ventilated. The fabrics are also highly compressible and therefore the jacket packs really well.

You can wear the Wisp Jacket as an insulation layer for another jacket or winter coat, but it’s when you wear it as an outer layer that it really shines. The Wisp Jacket will wrap you in a layer of perfectly tempered fresh air, whether you’re walking your dog or belaying a big wall climb.

This product is recyclable and we kindly ask you to return it to us when it’s completely worn out. We have recycle units in all our own stores and many of our retailers.

Padded garments

Our padded garments are made with synthetic insulation from Primaloft. There are many advantages to a synthetic padding compared to down: You don’t have to tumble dry the garment with balls to regain the shape, it dries faster and it doesn’t smell when it’s damp.

• Air clothes instead of washing to save water, energy and to make the garments last longer.
• Use a washing bag to protect your garments and to prevent fibers from leaking. When cleaning the bag and filter in the machine, make sure to wipe it clean and throw the lint in your trash can. Never rinse it in water since we don’t want the fibers to end up in lakes or oceans.
• Machine wash cold.
• Use mild environmentally certified detergents and make sure to use the right dose.
• Avoid fabric softener. Besides being harmful for our environment, they have a negative impact on the garment performance, mainly moisture transportation and breathability.
• Hang dry. Just remember to introduce heat to the garment after washing to reactivate the water resistant surface of the outer fabric. Use a drying cabinet, dryer or iron. Make sure you monitor the heat so the garment does not melt.

Circular

This product is fully circular, meaning that it's made either from recycled and recyclable or renewable and biodegradable fibers. Most products in today's society are made in a linear lifecycle, where earth's resources are extracted, used and then discarded. This is not working in the long run and comes at a great environmental impact. Instead, we want to close the loop and reuse the material we already have. But we need your help. When your Houdini garments are completely worn out, please return them to us through the recycling units we have in all our own stores and at many retailers.

Recycled

At least 50% of the fibers in this garment come from recycled sources, either recycled clothes or other sources like PET bottles. We mainly use recycled polyester, which has many benefits. It reduces both CO2 emissions and water use compared to virgin polyester. How much depends on the type of recycling. One of our suppliers show 32% less CO2 emissions and 94% less water use for mechanically recycled polyester. In addition to the impact in production, the major shift is using "waste" as raw material instead of crude oil.

Recyclable

The fabric in this garment is fully recyclable. Instead of becoming waste, the raw material can be used for new products. Our goal is that by 2030, we will take no raw material to our products from the earth's crust. Circular products, made from reycled and recyclable materials are a real game changer, but we need your help for the system to work. When your Houdini garments are completely worn out, please return them to us. We have recycle units in all of our own stores and at many retailers.
