Hydration Tech-Infused Jackets

The Reservoir Hydration Jacket by 686 is Made from GORE-TEX

— December 14, 2018 — Fashion
Snowboarding apparel label 686 introduces the new 'Reservoir Hydration' jacket, complete in a GORE-TEX shell construction to deliver ultra durable elements. The outerwear is infused with the label's 'Hydrastash' system, which is currently waiting to be patented. The system is directly incorporated into the jacket, protected by two layers of the aforementioned GORE-TEX shell. The jacket is also complete with functional qualities including the underarm ventilation, hood adjustments, multiple pockets within the interior and at the exterior, and more.

To deliver warm sensibilities, the jacket is lined with soft merino wool at the collars and the mouth flap. The hydration system functions with a hidden micro-tube and small valve that lines closely with the zipper enclosure to ensure that it is secure and does not affect the overall design aesthetics.
Trend Themes
1. Tech-infused Wearable Hydration - The incorporation of hydration systems into clothing have disruptive potential to revolutionize the wearables industry and improve user experience by eliminating the need for external hydration devices.
2. GORE-TEX Shell Construction - The use of GORE-TEX in clothing provides an opportunity to develop durable and waterproof fabrics that can be applied beyond the apparel industry, in areas such as transportation and construction.
3. Functional Outdoor Wear - There is potential for the outdoor wear industry to continue to innovate and develop functional and versatile clothing for a range of purposes, such as performance and safety gear.
Industry Implications
1. Snowboarding Apparel - Snowboarding apparel companies can benefit from incorporating hydration systems like Hydrastash into their clothing to enhance the functionality and practicality of their products.
2. Wearable Technology - Hydration systems integrated into clothing present a disruptive opportunity within the wearable technology sector, potentially changing the way users approach hydration during physical activities and events.
3. Outdoor Wear - The outdoor wear industry can continue to find innovative ways to incorporate functional features into clothing for various outdoor activities such as hiking, camping and sporting events.
