Mammut Snowboarding Gear 2007 - 2008 Overview
Based in Switzerland, Mammut is a leading manufacturer of all-season alpine gear and apparel. The Mammut Sports Group now includes Raichle Swiss quality outdoor footwear (www.raichle.com) and ToKo wax and care products (www.toko.ch).
Extreme Qogir
The Extreme Qogir is Mammut’s latest hybrid soft shell innovation, incorporating a new Ceramic Dot reinforcement technology providing a previously unseen level of protection from friction and wear. As the trend toward increasingly finer and softer materials in the production of soft shells and outdoor clothing continues, durability and garment longevity has become a concern as apparel is often exposed to the friction of pack straps, hip belts, and unforgiving surfaces. Outdoor specialty consumers have come to expect an uncompromisingly high level of quality and endurance from clothing and gear even as soft shells, for example, trend toward lighter weight and more supple, flexible, and wearable fabrics. Swiss manufacturer Christian Eschler AG developed a solution with its new "ceramic imprinting", which incorporates ceramic particles into a surface coating that is highly resistant to friction, with a greater longevity than non-imprinted reinforcement materials. The ceramic dots can be used with virtually any material, allowing the garment to retain its softness and flexibility even in the reinforced areas. The innovation is notably environmentally friendly, and no solvents are used in the production process.
The jacket also won an OutDoor INDUSTRY Award at the recent OutDoor tradeshow in Freidrichshafen, an award recognizing apparel and gear in a variety of categories for quality, innovation, and performance. Specifically, contending products are evaluated for degree of innovation, design quality, choice of materials, environmental friendliness, functionality, ergonomics, utility value, and trendsetting character, among other criteria. The OutDoor INDUSTRY Award is intended to assist consumers in purchasing innovative products of premium quality, and endorses winning manufacturers with the endorsement seal for hangtags and in-shop point-of-sale collateral. OutDoor INDUSTRY AWARD designees were announced at the show, held July 19th-22nd in Friedrichshafen, Germany.
