Houdini Sportswear Coming to America

If you live in the United States and enjoy well-made and stylish base layer garments and performance apparel, we have good news for you.  It appears that Polartec is lending a bit of assistance to bring Houdini Sportswear to North America.  If you are not familiar with Houdini Sportswear, you can read more toward the bottom of this post.

Polartec, LLC, a premium provider of innovative textile solutions, announced it is helping bring Houdini Sportswear’s progressive line of performancewear that heavily emphasizes style and sustainability to North American adventure seekers.  Houdini’s product line is built around the philosophy of “wearable multitools” that provides comfort everywhere: whether conquering the backcountry or out on the town with friends.

Houdini Sportswear’s legendary Power Houdi is made with Polartec® Power Stretch® Pro™. The fabric is a 4-way stretch fleece engineered to push the performance of base layers.  Polartec reinforces the elastic fibers on the exterior surface of the fabric for more support and stability during movement. The unique construction also allows for increased resistance and durability against the elements without sacrificing breathability or comfort. This is why the Power Houdi is a versatile garment that can be used as a protective outer layer or next-to-skin.
