Paul & Shark is a brand renowned for its leisurewear, especially on the water. It’s a high-end luxury brand that’s consistently brought out boating clothes that aren’t just stylish, but durable as well. You’ll find knitwear, shirts, jeans, sweatshirts, coats, beachwear, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paul & Shark was established in 1975 by Paolo (Paul) Dini, whose family had a knitting mill in Varese, Italy. He named the company after an 18th-century sailing ship, and today, it’s an international brand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Is New With Paul & Shark?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Paul & Shark is a brand dedicated to the 3 quintessential Italian values: quality, creativity, and technology. They’re known for selling smart casual and luxury clothing you can wear in the toughest of waters. Even today, every single piece is made in Italy, and many of them are made at the Dini family mill, Dama Spa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In December 2021, the brand opened a new concept store at Malpensa Airport in Milan, Italy. This is supposed to be a restart of their brand, which will usher in many new and exciting projects for 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sustainable Raw Materials<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

While Paul & Shark dedicate themselves to such values, this doesn’t mean they disregard their environmental footprint. In fact, they’re committed to using sustainable raw materials to keep their carbon footprint as small as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example, this brand uses hand-picked cotton grown with low-impact methods. And they source recycled wool and goose down to not only reduce CO2 emissions and save water but also reduce the exploitation of animals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paul & Shark also has a gold-level plastic-free certificate by Sfridoo and a UNI EN ISO 14001:2015 certification. The latter means they’ve received recognition for their efforts as an industry leader that’s environmentally responsible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Protection From Electromagnetic Waves (EMW)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Are you worried about harmful EMW coming from your mobile devices? Paul & Shark’s garments are lined with metal alloy fabric, which provides a shield against these harmful waves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Steel is a great conductor, so it absorbs the EMW effectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All Elements Are Made in Italy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Paul & Shark’s dedication to high-quality pieces is evident when you consider where they make their pieces. Italy’s known for its high-quality craftsmanship and luxury designs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fact that most work is done at the family mill suggests that this third-generation company keeps a close eye on its products. You’ll never have to worry about cheaper, lesser-quality garments that have been outsourced for production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TYPHOON 20000<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

TYPHOON 20000<\/a> is exclusive technology from Paul & Shark. It’s a treatment used on their sportswear to keep you dry and safe while yachting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Paul<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Keep Water Out<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

TYPHOON 20000 uses an ultra-thin membrane that’s impenetrable for water. Any person that wears a garment with this treatment can trust that they’ll stay dry, even in the most turbulent waters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Brave the Winds<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The ocean can be not only cold but also windy. Harsh winds can make it feel colder than it really is, which can put a damper on any yachting trip<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

TYPHOON 20000 uses a revolutionary process that allows every square centimetre of the fabric to withstand a 20-meter column. Not only that, but it’ll also hold up against strong gusts of wind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Feel Comfortable<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Often, waterproof and windproof materials don’t feel very comfortable; they tend to trap heat and sweat. The technology for TYPHOON 20000 changes all this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This treatment is a membrane that’s highly breathable, which helps with air circulation. This breathability won’t have you sitting and soaking in sweat, as it’ll disperse excess body heat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, Paul & Shark line their garments with thermometric stitching. This helps keep you warm with little rubbing and chafing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
