Most performance wear is designed somewhere cold, then shipped here and marketed as "hot weather ready." We wanted to build the other way around — starting with the Gulf's climate and working outward.
Why HeiQ
HeiQ is a Swiss textile innovation company with more than a decade of testing behind its technologies, used by 50+ global brands across hundreds of millions of garments. Three of their technologies now sit at the core of select FalconTribe pieces:
- HeiQ Smart Temp — activated cooling that responds to body heat in real time, keeping fabric up to 2.5°C cooler when you need it most.
- HeiQ Mint — a plant-based deodoriser that resets with every wash, keeping fabric fresh without synthetic biocides.
- HeiQ Skin Care — a synbiotic technology that supports a healthier skin microbiome through everyday wear.
Paired with fabric built for here
Technology is only half the story. Every FalconTribe piece is cut from four-way stretch recycled fabrications, ventilated with mesh yokes and laser-cut perforation, and finished with construction details — bonded seams, reflective detailing, articulated fits — built specifically for how people move through Gulf summers.
