HAGLÖFS
GORE-TEX

Congratulations to David Bald from Plymouth who has won the award winning Spitz Jacket from Haglofs!

The Spitz was first introduced into the Haglöfs range in 2007 and promptly won an ISPO Outdoor Award for its ‘meticulous workmanship, use of high-tech materials and an extremely functional design’. Since then it has earnt the reputation of being one of the most adaptable, durable and functional pieces of kit for any outdoor enthusiast or specialist, and it is testament to its design that it has changed very little in the past 2 and a half years!

The design idea behind the Spitz was to create a minimalist shell jacket that is tough yet lightweight (495gms – size L). The main body of the jacket is made from a lightweight Gore-Tex® Pro Shell fabric which has great resistance to abrasion, and the woven micro grid backer provides higher durability, enhanced breathability, less friction and lower weight than other woven backers. The shoulder, back and hip sections are all reinforced to further increase durability, and the minimal seaming reduces wear and tear and the risk of leakage.

Haglöfs products are available from leading outdoor retailers throughout the UK & Ireland. To find out more visit www.haglofs.se or call 01539 822595 to locate your local stockist.

Had a message and thought it might be a sales ploy. Then remembered I'd entered the comp.

The timing could not have been better my old jacket was for the big coat rack in the sky.

It is a seriously good jacket now need a comp for salopettes as mine look so last year with this jacket onl

Lucky you, David! I think we need a photo of you wearing it on some peak. Preferably with the salopettes, even if they are so last year
