Descente Places Form Before Function for FW16 ALLTERRAIN Collection

Korean-based technical performance master Descente is taking no prisoners this FW16. Known to take cues from extreme cold-weather sports, the brand's latest ALLTERRAIN line is the type of garb built for even the most frigid winter temperatures.

The new line strives to offer excellent performance in a variety of conditions. For this, Descente has placed form before function, ensuring the garments not only look fresh and clean, but also last over time. Technology, including a StreamLine system that channels rain away, is incorporated into the Dermizax Matte 4 Way Stretch jacket, while the pullover down shirt uses a "Twin Dome" quilt stitching structure that effectively transforms it into a wearable toasted marshmallow.
