We asked the Brands a few questions about their product and their company.
This is what they told us:

Developed specifically for the trail, the super-lightweight Hybrid Jacket Flow Trail is thought out in every detail - with environmentally friendly manufacturing. It is made of the ultra-thin and at the same time extremely robust Pertex® Quantum material made from recycled nylon. The material used impresses with its water-repellent, windproof and breathable properties. Thanks to 4D BODDY MAPPING technology, the front and sides are absolutely windproof, while the back is elastic. This allows you to tackle steep climbs and rapid descents with absolute freedom of movement. If the jacket is not needed, it is lightweight and space-saving quickly stowed in any backpack. With the Hybrid Jacket Flow Trail the next trail can come!

What makes your product a perfectly developed PIECE OF GEAR FOR WOMEN?

This jacket from Schöffel is the perfect product for the award. The Hybrid Jacket Flow Trail convinces not only with its technical functionality, but also with its sustainability. Through the use of PFC-free and recycled material, the environment can be experienced on the mountain bike in harmony with nature. Schöffel is particularly important that its products optimally support the user in its use. Thanks to the 4D BODY MAPPING technology, the jacket is perfectly adapted to the activity. 

Biking is a trend topic. Not only throughout the year, but year-round. Thus, a study commissioned by Schöffel with the market research institute YouGov showed that 23% of respondents have discovered outdoor sports for themselves during the pandemic and just under half of the respondents want to be active in the coming winter. Here, 10% of respondents specifically plan to try out winter biking for themselves. 

Schöffel‘s design team takes time in the development of its products, looking at women in their activity and considering how the clothing must fit on the female body. Where do we sweat? Where do we need which materials? At Schöffel, the woman with her needs is brought to the forefront of product development .

"Tell us more about your COMPANY / PRODUCT SUSTAINABILITY... "

COMPANY: The Schöffel brand stands for quality, functionality and sustainability. The topic of sustainability is the logical consequence of the premium positioning and quality orientation and is not lived as a trend, but as an obligation. Schöffel is aware of its responsibility for any influence its actions have on society and the environment, and acts in this regard as well - and not just since yesterday.

Since 2011, Schöffel has been a committed member of the Fair Wear Foundation (FWF), which sets the highest standards. Since then, Schöffel has therefore consistently pursued the goal of ensuring fair production conditions among its partners. The long-established company achieved Leader status for 2020 for the seventh time in a row, which confirms above-average commitment. The cooperation between companies and the Fair Wear Foundation is based on the „Code of Labor Practices“. These eight social standards are derived from the ILO Convention (German: ILO - International Labor Organization) and the United Nations Declaration of Human Rights. Thus, the FWF Code of Labor Practices are based on internationally recognized standards discussed in the Tripartite Roundtable.

Beyond its cooperation with Fair Wear, Schöffel pursues a consistent sustainability strategy that includes not only fair working conditions but also the conservation of natural resources. A key component of this strategy is high-quality garments with the longest possible service life and the Schöffel Service Factory offering. This gives customers the opportunity to have garments that have already been used reconditioned, altered or repaired, thus extending the service life of the clothing in the long term. The Schöffel Service Factory thus makes a significant contribution to avoiding waste materials from the textile industry. In addition, the Service Factory advises customers on how to clean and care for their clothing.

The Schöffel collections contain sustainable materials such as Lyocell, a fiber obtained from natural raw materials such as wood, and S.Cafe®, a fiber composite to which recycled coffee grounds are added as an odor neutralizer. The merino wool and down in the collection are obtained under increased animal welfare criteria.

Schöffel is also a bluesign® system partner and a member of the Alliance for Sustainable Textiles and the European Outdoor Conservation Association (EOCA). In addition, Schöffel‘s products are free of polyfluorinated and perfluorinated chemicals (PFC) in the finish. In addition, the company supports a research project on the environmental issue of plastics.

The sustainability strategy also involves optimized transport routes for lower CO2 emissions or the use of renewable energies at the main site in Schwabmünchen.


PRODUCT: For this product Schöffel uses materials that make PFC unnecessary in its brand products. And without losing the usual high quality and performance of the clothing. Ecologically safe PFCs that are not water-soluble are also used for the membrane. For us as a company Schöffel, the topic of pollutant management and environmental management is of great importance. That is why we have been working with the bluesign ® system since 2013 and adhere to their limits, which are very strict and significantly stricter than the legal requirements in the EU chemicals regulation REACH. Therefore this product is free of PFC and blue-sign certificated. 

The most sustainable innovation is the incredibly high product quality, which results in a very high longevity. This is additionally extended thanks to our Servicefactory - much further beyond the time of style actuality.

"We know there are FUN FACTS and / or a BACKSTORY! Please share!"

The design of a women‘s product is much more complex than a men‘s product. Ladies have higher individual requirements overall, partly due to the different body shapes. For this reason, we always start with the ladies first in development. Because if it fits the lady, the men can be well derived.
