“What pleased me most was TRIBORD’s adaptability. Always improving things: detaching, resewing and reviewing to create more competitive products. I'll be starting the Vendée Globe warm and dry!”

Sailing outfits for all weather conditions

Three years ago, TRIBORD announced its collaboration with Yannick Bestaven to co-create apparel for being at sea.

Whether for pleasure or sailing around the world, this is apparel adapted to navigation.

The number-one goal was to find the right materials to resist humidity for the longest possible time. Hot or cold, wet or dry—  the team considered every type of weather when creating the Pro Series.

In 2021, Yannick Bestaven tested and approved the exclusive tri-layer, waterproof membrane designed by Decathlon. Going further, the designers optimised the jacket for water resistance.

Several prototypes were tested at the TRIBORD design centre in La Rochelle, and by Yannick himself.

“The aim was to create a full range of offshore racing equipment using our network of skippers. The Offshore Pro Series range has been tested and validated by Yannick Bestaven and a network of skippers in the biggest sailing races between 2021 and 2023.”

Waterproof dungarees

Highly abrasion-resistant knee and buttock reinforcements. A layer of foam on the knees to provide extra comfort.

Lightweight Shell Jacket

Waterproof (20,000 mm Schmerbers) and stretchy, the lightweight shell jacket is ideal for agile movement. It's also suitable for warm weather.

Merino-Lined Sailing Jacket and Dungarees set

The Merino wool inner fabric wicks away perspiration while providing the warmth needed for cold-weather sailing.

This serves as a second layer to be worn under the long shell jacket and waterproof dungarees.
