ProQuip?s pioneering water repellent knitwear range combines traditional, style and comfort with outstanding protection from wind and rain. Our knitwear is available in 100% high quality British lambswool All ProQuip knitwear is treated with an exclusively developed water repellent finish. Tests by ProQuip?s Scottish design team found that water can sit pooled on the surface of our garments for 24 hours before penetrating the water repellent outer. The 2/17Nm lambswool (New metric ? two pieces of fine quality yarn twisted together) produces a premium handle garment that is extremely durable with minimal piling. All ProQuip knitwear garments benefit from total easy care performance and are machine washable and tumble dryer friendly. Ironing the garment enhances its water repellency.
