About Akona AQ-Tec Gloves
Introducing Akonafs revolutionary thermal protection garment line: AQ-TEC. This multi-sport, thermal garment line uses the latest thermal technologies to provide comfortable, breathable, and flexible protection. The AQ-TEC thermal line combines Akonafs experience with their well-known wetsuit technology, with Akonafs passion for adventure in, on and under the water, to produce a truly versatile lightweight multi-piece system. Whether worn as stand-alone garments or used in combination with other pieces to achieve multiple combination possibilities, the AQ-TEC material is beyond diverse.
The secret is in how itfs made.Outer Layer: Super Stretch Multidirectional Nylon (SSMN) fabric provides you with unlimited natural freedom of movement for any activity. The Nylon fibers provide significant durability over the standard neoprene material from daily use, abrasion and UV light. The nylon fibers are water resistant preventing water from adding weight to the garment.
Middle Layer: Microporous TPU Film (MTP) is breathable to allow moisture and air to wick away from your skin while wearing out of the water for additional comfort. The MTP layer is windproof, which prevents wind chill, and is water resistant preventing once again from adding weight to the garment.
Inner Layer: Made from an advanced technology Elastic Polyester 4-Way Stretch Fleece (EPSF). The EPSF is a lofted fiber structure which creates a thermal warmth from the water next to your skin to prevent the loss of body temperature and regulate core warmth. This polyester fleece is the best insulating material, which is also highly water resistant and durable. With the best feature of all is that it is soft to the touch and non-chafing adding hours and hours of enjoyment to all of your outdoor activities.
Designed as part of the AQ-TEC system, these gloves utilize the same construction techniques employed by the entire line.The palm is coated with a thermal protective ArmorTex patch, providing exceptional grip in all conditions with its strong synthetic fibers. Constructed with unlimited dexterity, comfort and warmth, the AQ-TEC gloves are a great additional garment that limits water entry, keeping you warmer longer. Seams are glued and sewn and for increased warmth and security the gloves are equipped with a hook and loop wrist fastener. With 50+ SPF UV protection, this piece is excellent for surfers, windsurfing, kayaking, free-diving and scuba diving. AQ-TEC patented 3-Ply layers are antimicrobial. Black in color and available in multiple sizes.
