Castore, a British manufacturer of premium sportswear and athletic clothing, has teamed up once again with The LYCRA Company on a unisex hybrid vest featuring THERMOLITE® T-DOWN EcoMade insulation for their new McLaren F1 teamwear collection.  

The Castore’s website product description effectively highlights why this new jacket is essential for fans to stay comfortable while spectating their favorite sport and cheering on the drivers from the stands:

“From the latest McLaren collection, our Unisex Official McLaren F1 Team Hybrid Gilet is built with softshell fabric and THERMOLITE® sustainable padding to stay warm when you’re  trackside. This Hybrid Gilet is engineered with waterproof zips and pockets to keep your body and belongings dry. Stay seen on and off the track in low light visibility with reflective modifications throughout.”

Sustainable down alternative insulation

From front and center trackside bleachers or in the grandstand, the center of this collection is the McLaren branded vest, made with THERMOLITE® T-DOWN EcoMade insulation. 

Unlike traditional down, this technology is sourced from 100% recycled PET bottles, aligning with The LYCRA Company’s commitment to sustainability. 

THERMOLITE® T-DOWN EcoMade insulation boasts 500-fill power synthetic insulation, offering superior loft, enhanced moisture resistance, warmth retention even when wet, and rapid drying capabilities.

This advanced technology ensures breathability, portability, and swift recovery power, making it the ultimate choice for Formula 1 enthusiasts enjoying a day at the track.
