Schöffel Jackets and Sports Clothing - Quality and Tradition Made in Germany

The history of Schöffel is long, exciting and symphatic. It begins in 1804, when Georg Schöffel decided to settle down and manufacture stockings, socks and Swabian pointed caps in Schwabmünchen, Bavaria. Schwabmünchen was the center of the knitting trade at the time - "Schwabmünchen blue" stood for the highest quality. Georg Schöffel thus laid the foundation for the long history of the company, which today produces high-quality functional clothing for outdoor use.

Over the decades and centuries, the Schöffel portfolio has been subject to constant change. The sock trade has become a large textile manufacturer. New influences and ideas were added from generation to generation. In 1960 Hubert Schöffel opened a modern clothing store, and a little later added a new production facility for street pants, which soon employed 40 people. It was also Hubert Schöffel who recognized a major trend at the end of the 1960s: He decided to introduce a clothing line for hiking sports and invested in building a new factory for this purpose. This decision significantly shaped the future of the company: today, Schöffel Sportbekleidung is one of the major manufacturers of functional clothing for outdoor sports. 

Schöffel looks back on a long tradition and is well aware of this. At the same time, they are always looking ahead. The result is an exciting mix of tradition and modernity and an innovative spirit that is second to none. Added to this are high quality standards and a clear commitment to the production site in Schwabmünchen. Thanks to these ingredients, Schöffel has become one of the leading manufacturers of functional outdoor clothing. Schöffel wants to offer the perfect clothing to everyone who likes to be outdoors and enjoy nature. Schöffel products offer freedom of movement, protection in all weather conditions and maximum functionality, so you don't have to worry about anything. Instead, you can go out and enjoy nature no matter what the weather. The following clothing lines are available from Schöffel:

• Schöffel women's jackets and men's jackets with down and/or fleece for skiing.
• Schöffel cycling shorts, cycling jackets for men and women and functional cycling clothing such as vests or functional underwear for road cycling, mountain biking, touring and gravel
• Schöffel outdoor jackets, pants, shirts, underwear and accessories for outdoor use or for hiking

The Schöffel portfolio includes clothing for a wide range of outdoor activities. This includes, quite classically, hiking. From underwear to Schöffel outdoor jackets - Schöffel hiking clothing has been established for decades. In addition, there are the areas of bike, ski and urban. From stylish Schöffel men's jackets for everyday use to Schöffel cycling pants or a waterproof rain jacket: Schöffel has the right piece of clothing for every outdoor adventure in its range.

Schöffel has made a name for itself in the cycling sector with a specially tailored product line. Whether gravel, road bike, mountain bike or bike tour: Schöffel has the right clothing for your cycling activities in the program. 

Schöffel cycling jackets and cycling pants for trekking combine a casual look, casual cut and high functionality. On a long bike trip, it's important that your clothing fits comfortably, that it regulates moisture well and that it looks good. Schöffel travel shorts and bike travel shirts take all of this into account. They are just as functional as the sporty cut pieces for gravek use. At the same time, they are fashionably designed, hardly absorb odors and cut a good figure when you stop off at a restaurant.

In mountain biking, the function of the fabrics used is just as important as in the other cycling disciplines. In addition, there is a second decisive factor: The casual cuts of Schöffel MTB shorts and jerseys are not just due to the cool style. In mountain biking you need a certain freedom of movement, because you are constantly on the move on the bike. Often protective clothing such as knee or elbow pads are used - your mountain bike outfit must offer enough space for this. Last but not least, mountain bike clothing is exposed to strong environmental influences due to a lot of dust and mud. For this reason, the fabrics used by Schöffel are exceptionally robust and durable.

Gravel biking is modern and extremely versatile. Gravel biking combines the spirit and riding style of classic road cycling and mountain biking. Schöffel Gravel Shorts and Schöffel Gravel Jerseys do absolute justice to this mix. They are highly functional, fit snugly and offer a sporty, comfortable riding experience. They look casual and modern and offer practical features that do justice to the versatility of gravel biking.

For Schöffel, sustainability is neither a trend nor a marketing tool. Schöffel sees sustainability as an attitude to life and an integral part of its corporate philosophy. At Schöffel, sustainability is a commitment to people and the environment. Schöffel acts accordingly - and did so long before sustainability was a big issue. You can be sure: from product quality to social and environmental aspects, Schöffel does everything it can to leave as positive a footprint as possible. One result of these efforts is the Schöffel Service Factory.

The Schöffel Service Factory is sustainability in action: at its Schwabmünchen site, Schöffel employs 15 seamstresses who take care of nothing but repairs or modification requests. Furthermore, Schöffel offers a spare parts service as well as a cleaning and impregnation service. In this way, you can enjoy your Schöffel cycling jacket or Schöffel cycling shorts for as long as possible. And that is definitely extremely sustainable!
