Teaming up for the glaciers
French outdoor brand Picture Organic Clothing has partnered with Italian hiking shoe label La Sportiva to create a capsule collection whose profits will be donated to Protect Our Winters (POW), an NGO dedicated to the preservation of mountain areas and the outdoors.

The four-piece collection features a pair of leather hiking boots that are designed to be resoled without compromising comfort or performance, a 2.5-layer jacket with a waterproof-breathable Xpore membrane, an organic cotton T-shirt and cap.

The two eco-brands hope that this collaboration will help POW raise funds for its many projects, which include developing low-carbon travel solutions to reach ski resorts, mapping all bus routes leading to outdoor activity spots, and preparing actions for the upcoming International year of Glaciers’ Preservation in 2025.
