Award-winning London based AQUAPAC®, world- leaders in 100% waterproof protection have joined forces with Helly Hansen to develop the new Fjord Jacket incorporating patented Aquapac Technology.
The jacket, which launches at the London Boat Show January 2007, will be on display at the Aquapac stand N252.
An Aquapac waterproof phone pocket in the sleeve of the jacket allows the outdoor extremist to use their phone safely; sound and signal pass right through the case material and use with a Bluetooth headset means hands-free conversation is possible, even when hauling a winch or piloting a storm.
Guaranteed submersible to 15ft/5m, the Aquapac pocket will keep your phone dry even if you’re not! The patented airtight seal not only keeps the phone protected from water damage but also from salt spray, sand and dirt too.
Aquapac has been making waterproof cases since 1983, and now protects the essential equipment of some of the world’s most demanding extreme sportsmen. Andrew MacAuley, Product Development Director of Aquapac says: “Designing with Helly Hansen has been a technological triumph, and the combination of two world-class brands’ knowledge into the awesome Fjord Jacket is a major leap in allowing wearable technology for the extreme sports market”
AQUACLIP®
The quick-action sealing system, called the Aquaclip®, makes each Aquapac case 100% waterproof with a simple twist of two levers. The innovative design of the Aquaclip® ensures that the Aquapac always stays in one piece, even when open, eliminating the need for loose screws or folding of the case.
