Reduce Fading and Improve Stitching
One of the major differences between the new line of Sisley-Evolution suits and the budget suits is how the product is dyed. According to Evolution, the flight suits that fade quickly, especially black and navy-blue colored ones, are dyed after the Nomex material is manufactured. Typically Nomex comes from a manufacturer in a large roll of white material and is dyed later in the process. Evolution uses what’s called producer-dyed Nomex that is dyed at the thread level prior to being woven. This material costs more, but is much more resistant to fading.
The other area of construction that Abbott sought to improve is durability, by utilizing a triple-stitching process. Typical budget suits use double stitching for the major seams, but in high-stress areas, these suits can prematurely begin to separate at the seams. Evolution made a business decision to use the triple-stitch for all high-stress areas, which is the majority of the flight suit.
