Bond Outerwear, New Brand for Winter 2010

From the former designers of Foursquare and Special Blend comes the most exciting new company in the snowboard industry. Bond Outerwear will be debuting their first snowboard outerwear line for the 2009/2010 season.
Bond is a carbon neutral company and, unlike other eco-friendly companies, they have created a unique outerwear line with price points that are actually reasonable for the average snowboarder. Utilizing a top down sustainability model, Bond Outerwear is using recycled materials like PET (made from plastic bottles) for their shell fabrics, scrapped plastic pellets from other industries for buttons and snaps, and discarded coconut shells for a wicking liner.
Don’t worry, Bond has also managed to create an eco-friendly collection with out the hippie aesthetics. Be prepared for bright plaids and contrast color-blocking with an athletic fit.
Check back in the next couple of days for an early preview of next year’s Bond Jackets for Women.
