Following a line of clothing oriented towards cross-country skiing, Black Diamond is continuing its foray into apparel with a freeride collection for winter 2016.

The American mountain sports brand is presenting the apparel range at Ispo until February 8.

On the agenda: thirteen pieces for men and eight for women. The line notably includes a straight-legged pair of trousers, “Mission Pants”, along with a Gore-Tex shell. And its special feature? A pocket specifically designed to hold a DVA (an avalanche detector), an invention that received an Ispo Gold Award. 

The collection features outer layers that combine Schoeller and Primaloft materials, and jackets equipped with Windstopper material. The line comes in a wide range of colors with pieces going from about 200-600 euros.

€1 = $1.15/£0.75
