"MACNOVA' WATERPROOF

The "MAUNOVA" is randa to our own design of a specially woven cloth and treated with a patent proofing process which enables it to withstand the peculiarities of the climate.

It is cut on free and easy yet smart lisos, providing perfect comfort in wear, and every vetail in the making has the closest scrutiny.
