The elite oilskin from Henri Lloyd is said to be around one kilogramme lighter than the previous collection. The offshore set consists of a new, three-layer Gore-Tex fabric and is said to have 20 per cent more breathability than comparable products. The jacket is equipped with a particularly high and protective collar to suit the area of use. The special feature here is that the collar is significantly wider than before, but can be pulled tighter over the storm visor.
The normal top with six pockets costs 665 euros; the dungarees are available for 475 euros. The jackets and trousers are available in men's and women's styles. There is also a slimmed-down race top with fewer pockets and a customised mid and baselayer collection. The colour options are red and blue.
