HeatCrush™ 8" Desert Shorts | Moonstruck

8" HeatCrush™ liner. Japanese-developed sweat-reactive microjersey: ultralight, silky-soft, four-way stretch. As sweat evaporates, it pulls heat from the surface. As air moves through it, the cooling effect intensifies.

For sustained periods of heat. Desert crossings, exposed ridges, and those miles where managing temperature becomes as essential as managing pace.

The Rippy™ shell provides complete freedom of movement over all terrain, while the HeatCrush™ liner goes to work against the skin: a cooling effect that intensifies with effort and accentuates as the distance grows. Pockets for your small essentials. For sustained effort in extreme conditions, when the only way through the heat is to embrace it.

- Rippy™

The ripstop shell fabric is made in Italy by a mill founded in 1893. Traditionally used for parachutes and military equipment, ripstop weaves thicker yarns into a grid pattern that resists tearing and maintains its shape. Lightweight, durable, and quick-drying. A structured fabric designed for strength and reliability.

- HeatCrush™

A Japanese-engineered technical mesh that actively cools the body as it heats up. As sweat comes into contact with the fabric, HeatCrush™ pulls heat from the surface. As air moves through it, the effect intensifies. An active cooling that intensifies with effort rather than retreating from it. Ultralight, silky-soft, four-way stretch, full moisture control.

Redefines heat management while retaining all the technical properties of performance fabrics. Designed for extreme activities. For long distance efforts where heat is not a variable, but a condition.
