Paul & Shark may not be the most fashionable collection for the winter but it may well be the most suitable for protection against the seasonal weather.
Sportswear collection
Paul & Shark's collection of jackets lined with "Phase Change" material keep the temperature inside the garment at a comfortable level even in extreme weather conditions.
"Phase Change" material contains microscopic capsules which control the body temperature by changing their physical state from liquid to solid and vice versa. As the temperature rises (due to hot weather conditions or physical activity), the capsules become liquid and absorb the excess heat.
When the temperature drops (due to cold weather or when the body is at rest), the capsules solidify and release the stored heat. High technology comes to clothing.
The sportswear collection also provides some small design features that might be especially welcomed by men:
- A magnetized mobile phone pocket, electromagnetically shielded to protect the wearer from the harmful rays produced by mobile telephones.
- An anti-theft pocket hidden at the back under a personalized strap/label.
Knitwear collection
Paul & Shark have taken their inspiration from the style and charm of traditional English fishermen's pullovers to create a collection of everlasting sweaters perfect for leisure wear.
These garments are easily recognized by the closely knitted stitches and thin plaits which make them unique.
Paul & Shark are delighted to present a new collection of pullovers in pure Merino wool, guaranteed by the "Wools of New Zealand" trademark.
This collection combines the natural quality of Merino wool with Paul & Shark's style and tradition to produce a collection dedicated to natural fibres.
The pullovers are presented in an original, practical and spacious padded blue bag with an aluminum lining, shoulder strap and double zip.
Ladies collection
Paul & Shark have applied to the ladies collection the same principle that they have been using for years for their menswear.
The women's collection is a range of both casual and high-tech garments specially designed for the woman who likes to be feminine.
This year, Paul & Shark have decided to give some suggestions about how to mix and match the garments of their ladies collection. For instance, the items to mix and match might include turtle neck knitwear, pants, jackets, hats, scarves, gloves and various accessories.
