MASCOT Size Chart & Product Guide

Important information about MASCOT’s products

Material For MASCOT’s trousers, we use a number of fibres, each of which has some special properties. They can stand alone, or they can be combined with others in innovative ways where each fibre contributes its own particular characteristics. One example of this advantage is the combination of durable polyester with soft and moisture wicking cotton. • Cotton is a pure, natural product. It is soft, moisture absorbing and has a high wet strength. It is suitable for wear against the skin, as it also directs heat away from the body. • Polyester is a popular fibre because it is, first and foremost, very durable. Polyester is quick-drying and doesn’t shrink or wrinkle. • Nylon is the trade name for polyamide and is extremely durable. Nylon is easily washed, doesn’t shrink and doesn’t wrinkle. • CORDURA ® polyamide (nylon) is extremely durable. CORDURA ® is tested to be seven times stronger than cotton. • Lyocell is used under the brand name TENCEL ® . TENCEL ® is a natural, regenerating fibre derived from trees. The fibre is soft, cooling, extremely moisture absorbing and is very comfortable to wear. • Elastane has a higher elasticity than any other fabric fibre. When you mix elastane with a solid fibre, the final fabric will have elasticity.

Quality number The fibres are combined in different ways. We give each combination a number that is unique for this fabric quality’s combination of fibre, weight, weave and eventual finishes. You can find the three digit quality number under the products next to the five digit product number. In this scheme, you can compare the weight with the durability on each trouser quality.
