Bond Outerwear - Recycled PET & Carbon Neutral

If you aren't familiar with Bond Outerwear you should visit their site and check out their products as they are one of the most progressive if not the most progressive snowboard outerwear companies in terms of sustainability. All of their outer shells and inner liners utilize a blend of recycled PET (made from plastic bottles and containers), and virgin polyester that is completely recyclable. Both are materials that have been used before and can be used again for years to come. All snaps, zipper pulls, and buttons are made from discarded plastic pellets from heavy industry. Bond offsets all their carbon usage for everything from their office power to shipping through Carbonfund.org, and ship directly from their suppliers to their retailers which reduces and saves on fuel usage and unnecessary packaging waste. Bond holds their entire collection to high standards and work everyday to find new ways to innovate and make the most environmentally considered snowboard outerwear on the market.

Bond Women's Molly Jacket


More often than not pullovers are relegated to realms of sweaters. They look down on society from their argyle and cable knit perches passing judgement on all who dare to cross their path. Bond has decided to end the tyranny, and offer a pullover jacket to put an end to their cruel reign. You may also call it an “anorak” which, as Bond understand, is Inuit for “Am I going to mess my hair up putting this thing on?” Well, the answer to that is “Nope!”, because you can unzip it all the way down for easy entry. Take that Inuits!

Eco Features:
·      Shell and inner liner - blend of recycled PET (made from plastic bottles and containers) and virgin polyester which is completely recyclable
·      80 gm of recycled polyester Tactical Insulation

Bond Civil Jacket


Bottom line…the Bond Civil Jacket is an eco-friendly, storm-ready shell for the devoted shredder.

This Jacket comes equipped with a shell and inner liner utilizing a blend of recycled PET (made from plastic bottles and containers), and virgin polyester that is completely recyclable. Both are materials have been used before and can be used again for years to come. The Snaps? Made from discarded pellets from heavy industry. Zipper pulls and Buttons? Same deal. One man's trash is another's treasure, or at least another man's cargo pocket snap. The coconut grove wicking system consisting of discarded shells form the food industry provide a very active level of evaporative cooling and odor resistance that’s blended into a small amount of polyester to create a super functional inner lining. The waste management pocket, a water resistant lined pocket will take care of even the snottiest Kleenex, the chocolatiest candy wrapper, or even an exploded tube of sunscreen. Basically, anything that you really don't want, please don't throw it on the hill, put it in here. Also can be used as a normal storage pocket. Duh.

Other features include

• 10K Waterproofing, 10K Breathability
• Critical taped seams
• Hood aperture adjustments hidden in chestpockets
• Under pocket flap glove holder
• 14” No-B.O. pit zips
