LevelSix Debuts New Exhaust Lite/Pro Fabric

-

- Advertisment -

LeveSix is unveiling its brand-new Exhaust Pro and Exhaust Lite fabrics for the 2026 season.

While the company modified its old Exhaust fabric to be PFAS-free, its new Exhaust Pro and Exhaust Lite fabrics have been designed from the ground up to be PFAS-free, made from recycled materials to be the best waterproof breathable fabrics on the market.

In lab tests, the company maintains these fabrics have proven to be substantially more breathable and waterproof than Level Six’s current fabrics. They call it “a huge leap forward for Level Six’s fabric construction.”

Its new Exhaust Pro fabric is its top-of-the-line 3.0-ply fabric, replacing Exhaust 3.0: “It is the foundation for our next-generation dry suits and other premium pieces that require exceptional durability. This new fabric is more waterproof, more breathable, and of a higher quality than anything that has come before. All while being PFAS-free and recycled… Yes, we know all companies say that about every new fabric, but from one group of
gear nerds to another, this stuff is awesome.”

Level Six’s new dry suits also boast a brand-new fit that provides an uninhibited range of motion—augmented by two-way stretch built into their Exhaust Pro fabric.
