Fjällräven continues its push for sustainability within waterproof hardshells.
For the 2016 trekking season, the company is launching its Abisko Eco- Shell series of lightweight rain garments. The Abisko Eco-Shell Jacket and Abisko Eco-Shell Trousers are made from a new 2.5-layer material with a face fabric in recycled polyester that is treated with a fluorocarbon-free impregnation.
This autumn, Keb Eco-Shell is being released – Fjällräven’s new series of advanced hardshells that lift sustainability to a completely new level. And Fjällräven is continuing onwards with their environmental compass set on lightweight rain gear. In the spring of 2016, Abisko Eco-Shell is being introduced for summer trekking and outings in warm conditions.
Abisko Eco-Shell Jacket has been developed to combine excellent weather protection with low environmental impact. It is pliant and packable garment with simple designs that keep weight to a minimum. Four-way stretch and articulated fit give excellent freedom of movement. Excess heat can be ventilated out through pocket openings and the jacket has a well-fitting, adjustable hood with a protective brim.
Abisko Eco-Shell garments are available in both men’s and women’s models and will be available in stores from spring 2016.
