- Are the displayed (blue & yellow) "squid ink" & "brimstone"?
It would be real handy if the pic changed with color selection on yr website! - Thank you for the question. I agree, that would be a nice feature and I believe it's something our web team has been working on. In the meantime, hovering over the thumbnail will make the color name appear. The displayed colors are indeed "Squid Ink" and "Brimstone". Thanks!

Hybrid technology is the art of combining materials with different functioning performance parameters into one garment to take advantage of the best of both textiles.
Garments may utilize textiles that are ultra-light weight in the main body combined with more durable materials in high wear areas, gaining the performance and weight advantage of one textile with the durability offered by the other. For example, TerraTex™ textiles offer light weight and added breathablility, but garments made 100% with this textile are too light for steady use - they simply can't offer high durability in order to deliver on their other performance assets.
Adding super durable, highly breathable Fortius™ textiles to high wear areas up the overall durability of the garment so it can be brought into regular use, yet with the benefits of lighter weight and extra breathability. Only a small percentage of weight is sacrificed to create a garment that is still light and more breathable, yet also reasonably durable. - Product Reviews
