JanSport chooses Cordura

05/02/2009

California-based outdoor equipment brand JanSport has decided to use Invista's Cordura fabrics for a new series of products.

The collection, Heritage, includes duffel and swing bags, as well as a wide range of backpacks.

The brand's co-founder Skip Yowell, said on announcing the collection: "The Heritage series is truly taking us back to our roots [in 1967] in look, feel and design. We used Cordura fabrics back then and the two brands have a relationship that has withstood the test of time, perhaps because we both have similar principles of exceptional durability, quality and long-lasting good looks."
