The standard in waterproof, windproof, breathable fabric.
Hydronaute’s high performance waterproof, highly breathable and windproof technology guarantees protection in all conditions. The combination of new-age face fabrics with innovative laminate technology means superior weather protection and exceptional comfort.
The face fabric is a crucial factor in the performance of Mont Hydronaute garments. It provides the durability, breathability and ‘feel’ of Hydronaute. Our access to the most advanced face fabrics means that Mont outerwear is technically superior to previously used fabric technologies. In particular, the face fabric in our bushwalking range has increased abrasion resistance, tear strength and pinhole resistance.

The most durable, waterproof, breathable technology, suitable for all conditions.
In all conditions Hydronaute PRO™ provides a superior level of performance, delivering significantly enhanced breathability while maintaining a totally waterproof and windproof barrier.
Leaving in its wake the limitations of microporous waterproof fabrics, Hydronaute PRO, with its hydrophilic membrane, delivers significantly higher breathability in all conditions while maintaining a 100% waterproof, totally windproof barrier.
Hydronaute PRO™ utilises the latest technology in bonding breathable membrane to face fabric. Unlike the bonding agents of most microporous fabrics which clog pores, the adhesive on Hydronaute PRO is breathable in itself.
This allows for a greater volume of moisture vapour to be transported through the membrane. This new adhesive also allows for a much stronger lamination between the membrane and face fabric resulting in a high level of durability. The most durable waterproof breathable technology is now here.

3 Layer fabric for ultralight waterproof, windproof, breathable protection.
Hydronaute Ultra provides and maintains consistent breathable, waterproof, windproof protection across a wide range of conditions. Hydronaute Ultra uses an innovative ultralight bi-component membrane. Breathable through interconnected micropores far smaller in size and greater in number than the micropores in traditional microporous PU coatings, Hydronaute Ultra moves moisture vapour and condensed moisture efficiently in both high and low level humidity. Hydronaute Ultra is more breathable across a wide range of conditions while maintaining a totally waterproof, windproof exterior.

Specially designed for Mont down clothing and sleeping bags, makes the best insulation even better.
Using advanced monolithic PU membrane technology, Hydronaute XT fabric is completely waterproof, totally windproof & highly breathable. Guaranteed to maintain greater warmth & comfort than coated fabrics, Hydronaute XT is the best protection for down sleeping bags & clothing in cold to extreme conditions.
Keeping down dry is vital for optimal performance; wet down just won’t keep you warm. Waterproof Hydronaute XT fabric provides exceptional moisture protection for down clothing & sleeping bags.
If not removed promptly, water vapour from your body will gather on down & reduce its ability to trap warmth. Hydronaute XT fabric expels 20L of water vapour per square metre per 24 hours for drier down, greater loft & maximum warmth.
With a 100% windproof rating, even Arctic blasts will not penetrate Hydronaute XT fabric, keeping warm air trapped inside.

100% recycled pre-consumer nylon, water resistant, windproof, breathable fabric.
100% Recycled: Guaranteed by the Global Recycle Standard, Hydronaute XT-R is a 100% recycled Nylon fabric made from pre-consumer industrial waste.
Using an ultra-light durable water resistant coating, Hydronaute XT-R fabric protects down from external moisture allowing it to trap as much warmth as possible.
Hydronaute XT-R expels 15L of water vapour per square metre per 24 hours for drier down, greater loft & maximum warmth.
With a 100% windproof rating, even the iciest winds will not penetrate Hydronaute XT-R fabric, keeping warm air trapped inside.
