“Colorblocking (on the) rocks” is the motto for fashion-savvy mountain goers in Summer 2014. VAUDE is showing its colors in the All Mountain Collection and sending mountain athletes out to their vertical rock runways in stylish plaid with tone in tone color blocks. For alpine all-rounders who also highly value individual style on classic routes.
Strong colors for mountain sports are as much a fashion statement as an additional safety aspect in bad visibility. The casual Ducan Softshell Jacket from VAUDE is just right for stylish, eco-conscience mountaineers. Thanks to Windproof 100 materials and an integrated hood, it keeps out even the strongest winds. The tonal colorblocks with bright contrasting colors on patch pockets bring a bright breath of fashion to the highest mountain. The jacket’s design pared with long, underarm ventilation zips and softshell materials manufactured in accordance with the stringent ecological bluesign® standard for textiles, keep wellness levels at an all time high. This earns the jacket a full score in style, performance and ecology.
Made to match: the lightweight Ducan Softshell Pants are made with full stretch Windproof 80 material. With a comfortable fit, they offer comprehensive weather protection whether on a foggy ascent to the lodge or up to a wind-swept peak ridge. The color contrasting, HF welded leg pockets and the robust and abrasion-resistant Cordura® reinforcements at the leg cuffs add to the shorts’ technical flair. The waist is adjustable with both velcro and a drawcord, while velcro on the legs and belt loops ensure a perfect fit. All pockets close with zips which will keep your energy bar or keys from getting lost on the 3rd pitch.
Ducan Shorts are arriving on the scene, short and in plaid. Softshell shorts made for summer from full-stretch Windproof 80 material for alpine all-rounders who value modern, stylish good looks in the mountains. A new technology now makes it possible to give this polyamide stretch fabric a plaid print. Furthermore, the fabric meets the strict bluesign® standard. The shorts also have some convincing features for alpine use: zip pockets, velcro adjustable waist, and color contrasting, welded leg pockets. A fresh new look for a variety of mountain sports, not just for black and white thinking traditionalists.
