THE NEW SPITZ JACKET. POWERED BY THE NORTHERN WIND.

Spitz is back and stronger than ever. The new Spitz takes on the wind. But not just any wind, the Northern wind.

For the relaunch of the durable Gore-Tex jacket Spitz, Haglöfs not only tamed the strongest element there is – but made it work for them. Using wind power from the world’s northernmost wind farm, the Northern Wind was incorporated into every stitch of a unique Spitz jacket. The jacket, made by the wind, is now being used by adventurer Erwan Le Lann on his four-year sailing journey around the world.

Full project available at www.haglofs.com

The new Spitz jacket will be available at retailers across the world starting September 1,
2016.

More than a century ago, Wiktor Haglöfs designed a backpack for the local workers of Swedish small town Torsång. The durable, practical backpack would be the proud beginnings of what today is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of outdoor clothing, footwear and hardware. The Haglöfs brand is currently marketed to the Nordic region, Europe and Asia and is owned by ASICS Corporation since 2010. For more info, please visit www.haglofs.com
