At Level Six, we understand the importance of durable gear. As a company committed to becoming more sustainable, keeping gear out of landfills is one of the best ways we can limit our impact while developing greener technologies. This means both constructing our gear to the highest standards while also providing industry-leading repair services that keep our gear on the water where it belongs.

While we have always taken quality seriously, this commitment to sustainability has led us to invest heavily in cutting-edge construction and quality control outlined below. It has also lead us to improve our repair and warranty services year over year to bring you gear and service that you can trust.

100% Recycled and PFC/PFAS/PFOS Free Nylon Fabrics

All our waterproof, breathable fabrics are made of 100% recycled nylon and are PFAS-free. This includes our fabric, membrane, and DWR on all of our exhaust fabrics.

PFAS or long chain forever chemicals have been the standard for durable water repellency for outdoor garments. They are also our industry's dirty secret.

These toxic chemicals never breakdown and growing research shows the overwhelming health and environmental problems that they cause. We have been working incredibly hard and have finally eliminated PFAS. We are incredibly proud of this achievement and of continuing to hold ourselves to the highest environmental standard. We are also not alone in striving for this goal and are excited to be joined by the other industry partners in this sustainability milestone.

This is another step on our sustainability journey
with much more work to come
