The latest addition within our sought-after range of gilets is the Mono Natural Dye Gilet in a men’s specific cut. Offering the perfect layer for changeable conditions, this gilet sets itself apart in true brand fashion. Close fitting yet breathable, it is made from 86% pre-consumer waste recycled nylon and 14% elastane and dyed with an innovative natural dyeing technology.
Originating from Japan, the technology - called Onibegie™ - is an environmentally friendly material that uses and combines ingredients extracted from onion skin as a base and in this case, rice husks and bamboo charcoal. Onibegie can express colours and textures unique to plants and the colourways of the gilet are therefore named after their pigment source: Bamboo Black, Rice Beige and Shoot Grey.
Rounding off this unique garment, the back panel is perforated with the iconic UC logo and a two-way Vislon zip for temperature regulation. Finished with C0 PFC-free DWR protection and wind panels to keep wind and light rain off your chest and shoulders. For added functionality, this extremely lightweight gilet also neatly packs itself into the rear pocket for easy storage and features reflective details for visibility.
