Prolite® Stretch
Our Prolite® range is about light, comfortable, easy care travel wear.
Prolite® fabric uses a specialised nylon yarn with a “soft cotton touch” which transfers moisture from the skin to keep you comfortable and dry no matter how hot or humid the conditions. The same technology ensures Prolite® dries quickly by spreading the moisture over the widest possible surface area. Cotton or other nylon and polyester fabrics with water-repellent treatments cannot replicate this performance.
Prolite® requires no ironing. After washing creases and wrinkles quickly drop out with wearing. The Fabric contains a UV inhibitor to improve the sun protection factor and the latest nanotechnology to enhance moisture transferring and odour repelling properties.
Prolite® Trousers, Shorts and Skirts use a heavier 140g/m², UPF* 70, stretch fabric. A 6% lycra® content gives you uninhibited freedom and comfort. We have also found from experience the lycra® stabilises the nylon and prevents any uncomfortable static cling. We are now using a new DTY nylon (Draw Texture Yarn) to improve the fabrics pill and abrasion resistance properties.
All the trousers have non pleated flat fronts. The Convertible Trousers have an elastic insert in the waist-band and the Nova, ¾ Nova and Capri pants have adjustable Velcro hip tabs.
The Trouser range is divided by two different design styles, Trousers and Convertibles have a classic high rise (waist fitting) and the Jeans, Capri’s and Nova’s have a more contemporary lower rise (hip fitting). The new Straights have a lower rise and a narrower leg.
All pocket linings use Prolite® fabric to ensure the garment’s overall drying and moisture transfer properties are not compromised. All the trouser styles have either a zip-up passport size pocket on the outside leg or on the inside of the right pocket. The waistbands are finished with bar-tacked belt loops wide enough for 40mm belts.
Prolite® Travel Wear is a durable, easy-care, high performance range, designed to take you to the ends of the earth in comfort and style

This skirt is excellent. I’ve had 5 ( still got them) over the last 10 or so years in different colours. Some are looking very worn out from so much use. I’ve travelled all over the world with them for work or pleasure. They have never gone out of fashion and I often get compliments and asked where I bought that skirt. I got mine taken up to knee level. I’m just about to buy another one.

GREAT SKIRT FOR URBAN TRAVEL
I love this skirt. I took it with me to the UK for an urban summer holiday. It wore well, was great in hot and cool weather, and washed and dried like a dream. My only regret is that I didn’t buy a pair of trousers in the same fabric at the same time.
