Canadian outdoor brand Arc’teryx has promoted Dan Green to the position of vice-president for design after 17 years with the company.

On accepting the new role, Mr Green said: “My task is to figure out how our product is going to be relevant in the future. We have a long history of making big moves into unexpected places and we’re pushing as hard now as we ever have.”
