On December 5th, Marmot will launch its first collaboration with Toronto-based retailer and brand Better™ Gift Shop. This twelve-piece capsule collection is a fusion of classic and novel outdoor designs with modern innovation. The collection features winter-ready staples like insulated jackets and polar fleece, distinguished by a unique color palette of Better Blue, Solar Yellow, and Indigo.
Marmot, known for its innovative technology and functional elegance, joins forces with Better™ Gift Shop's inclusive approach to outdoor attire. The capsule is versatile, suitable for various activities like braving subzero temperatures or hiking in Mammoth, California. Its retro style is both eye-catching and functional.
A significant highlight of the collection is its commitment to environmentally friendly materials. The use of innovative fabrics like Pertex® Quantum 100% recycled nylon ripstop, recycled Seawool, and recycled nylon liners showcases this dedication. The colorways are another innovative aspect, with Classic Solar and updated Better™ Blue serving as the core colors. Indigo recycled nylon overlays provide versatility and a touch of elegance.
Unique design elements include a custom pattern featuring the grid map of Toronto on the zipper Tee and lining of select pieces like the Plasma Parka and Warm Cube Active Novus.
