KHIONE & NENGAL | KEEP PERFORMING ON AND OFF PISTE

Last year Haglöfs introduced the Khione and Nengal collections two new freeride product families,designed to follow your move on the mountain. Now, these collections have been developed and expanded with the introduction of the Khione 3L PROOF™ Jacket and Pant, and the Nengal 3L PROOF™ Parka and Pant. Each garment is made with Haglöfs’ own high-performance, fluorocarbon-free PROOF™ ECO material, and designed to bring out the best of your ability while tackling any terrain.

The updated collections fuse performance with style and sustainability, and were developed with free skiing in mind, giving you everything you need for epic powder days. They're smartly designed, easy to adjust, ventilated, reinforced and patterned for action and motion, and the Khione and Nengal 3L PROOF™ jackets and pants even contain inbuilt trackable RECCO® reflectors for extra security on the mountainside.

For great breathability and ultimate weather protection the Khione and Nengal 3L PROOF™ jackets and pants have been built with trusty, high-performance PROOF™ ECO fabrics – Haglöfs’ own waterproof, windproof and breathable material, free from fluorocarbons and partly made out of recycled polyamide. So, whether you're on- or off-piste, the breathable and functional 3-layer PROOF™ ECO material will keep you comfortable.

"We developed PROOF™ to be our own sustainable technology – one that can deliver solid protection and high performance. The best way for us to do this was to build it into a series of garments that have to withstand really tough conditions, while also letting the wearer stay as active and agile as possible" – says Jenny Spiik, Material Developer at Haglöfs.

The updated Khione and Nengal collections also include Khione Mid Hood, Nengal Mid Jacket and Nengal Mid Hood. These stylish and functional mid layersare made from recycled “ghost nets” – discarded fishing nets, retrieved from the sea – that has been used in the production of ECONYL®, a 100 % regenerated nylon yarn. Reusing this material benefits the environment two-fold by removing the need to produce more new raw material and, at the same time, helping to clean up the ocean.

The Khione 3L PROOF™ Jacket and Pant, Nengal 3L PROOF™ Parka and Pant, Khione Mid Hood, Nengal Mid Jacket and Nengal Mid Hood come in a variety of colors. The collections will be released in October 2018. For more information about the complete collection, please visit www.haglofs.com.

More than a century ago, Wiktor Haglöf designed a backpack for local workers in the small Swedish town of Torsång. The creation of this durable, practical backpack would mark the beginning of what has now become 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 has been owned by ASICS Corporation since 2010. For more info, please visit www.haglofs.com

Welcome to Haglöfs!

We come from Sweden, a country of extreme weather and extensive landscape. A place where the outdoors isn’t just a far off place, it’s in the fabric of our culture and community. We are committed to creating gear that will support anyone, anywhere in their own outdoor adventure. We were founded in 1914 by Wiktor Haglöf, a visionary with a dream and a toolbox. Our story has evolved from humble beginnings, and we’ve ventured into new territory, creating technical designs that set a new standard in craftsmanship.

At Haglöfs, we are Outsiders by Nature. We draw outside the lines, think outside the box, and live outside our comfort zones. We encourage exploration both physically and mentally through embracing the outdoors. We believe that everyone can experience the outdoors, and do all we can to ensure that it will still be there for future generations to explore.
