Another interesting product is the RC
0:03
jacket. Peter, tell us about it. Yes, so
0:05
for those that are racing in the
0:06
mountains, you'll often have as
0:08
mandatory kit to make sure that you are
0:10
well protected a waterproof piece. So
0:13
here we have the SL the endurance SL
0:17
jacket. This comes in at 200 euros.
0:20
It comes in the in the crack blue
0:22
colorway so that it's matching also the
0:24
shoes. But what's really interesting
0:26
here is the technicity. We're using the
0:29
the perfect shield fabric so that's
0:32
coming in at a 20,000 20,000 on the
0:34
waterproofing and breathability.
0:36
It's super lightweight. It's sub 100
0:38
grams. But the technicity really goes up
0:41
a level when you see the kind of
0:43
features. What's interesting here is
0:45
that when you're wearing a pack, there's
0:47
often the debate of does your jacket go
0:49
underneath or over the top of your pack.
0:51
What you can do with this jacket is not
0:53
only can you access
0:55
your flasks so you're able to drink and
0:57
stay hydrated without unzipping and
0:59
exposing yourself to the elements. But
1:01
the fit of the jacket is not compromised
1:04
in any way because you have the pleated
1:07
rear so it's sitting over the top of
1:08
your pack. The final piece of
1:10
information that's really interesting
1:12
here is for the first time in a trail
1:13
running piece, we're also introducing
1:16
the RECCO beacon.
1:18
This system was developed prior
1:20
primarily for avalanche rescues in the
1:23
winter seasons. RECCO have now launched
1:26
a new searchable system from a
1:28
helicopter that can also search in the
1:30
summer months as well. So if you're out
1:32
on the trail and you're losing mobile
1:34
phone signal and you have an accident,
1:36
you're now with this jacket you're
1:38
searchable
1:40
even if you have no mobile phone signal
1:42
or if you're unconscious. So that just
1:44
gives you an extra layer of protection
1:46
from the RECCO.
1:48
and the lightweight that really gives
1:50
you that race performance. So that's the
1:52
endurance SL jacket
1:55
that'll be coming in spring 2017.
1:57
Thank you, Peter.
