High-Tech Condensed for Comfort in Extreme Environments



For this expedition, "Antarctica 2015," Michele Pontrandolfo aims to reach the South Pole within three months, traversing approximately 4,000 kilometers of desolate terrain consisting solely of ice and snow, at altitudes ranging from 0 to 3,800 meters. His arrival is anticipated in January 2016.

Moncler has created technical equipment that encapsulates everything he requires for this monumental project. Inspired by the Moncler Grenoble Fall/Winter 2015-16 collection, the apparel boasts innovative design and functionality. Key features include high impermeability and water-repellent performance, accessories designed to withstand extreme cold, and heat-taped seams and insulation, all ensuring comfort even in the most challenging conditions.

Through their knowledge and extensive material research, Moncler has supplied custom-made, high-performance, functional clothing that meets every demand."
