Introducing the Filson x Helinox Tactical Collection
May 26, 2020
Two Legendary Brands Team Up to Create a New Must-Have Limited Edition Outdoor Collection Featuring Helinox Craftsmanship and Filson Tried and True Materials
SAN FRANCISCO / SEATTLE – May 26, 2020 – Filson and Helinox, two brands known for creating essential, high-quality gear for the outdoors, today announce a new collaboration that combines function, comfort and a new limited edition camo print.
The collaboration builds on Helinox’s foundation of performance, durability, and portability, adding a style that embodies the roots of the Filson brand with a new, limited edition Bubble Camo print or solid tan colorways along with standout accents and detail.
The new collection includes three popular products from the Helinox line: the lounge-ready Sunset Chair, Cot One Convertible, and the Table One Hard Top, all lightweight, durable, and comfortable, and ready for making the most of the outdoors, whether that be the backcountry or the backyard.
Each piece in the collection features a co-branded label, the Filson’s LTD Shrub Camo print or tan colorway, DAC aluminum alloy poles, high-strength nylon resin hubs and joining components, and durable, 600-denier polyester fabric.
“When Filson approached us about a collaboration, we were honored and excited to work with their team. The collection captures the Filson aesthetic and is designed for people who love spending time in the outdoors, comfortably – which is what Helinox products are made for,” said Azul Couzens, VP of Marketing, Helinox USA.
“Helinox is known for clever and packable gear that allows users to further enjoy their time outdoors. We loved the idea of blending the Filson aesthetic with their proven products to create a collection that is modern and compact, but still durable and classic” added Nathan Gray, Filson Product Specialist.
