Stockholm, Sweden (Nov. 14, 2024) — POC, the Swedish brand known for pushing boundaries in sports safety and protection, this week launched a new seasonal collection for the upcoming winter season led by refined design language across its range of innovative and high-performance products. Cleaner lines and confident colors come together to enhance established and award-winning silhouettes and offer a new perspective on life and safety on the slopes.
The new season collection includes a series of innovative and updated products, such as the Raw Capsule Collection, a helmet and goggle collection that forges simplicity and technicality together to provide a unique insight into protection, and a brand-new Fornix BC helmet. In addition, a host of technical updates to race and apparel styles are included in new season colors. All of these will be available in store and online starting in November.
“Almost two decades ago, when we came into the snow scene, our ideas established a new vision for safety and protection. Then, as now, safety is the centerpiece of our development and decision-making process.“ said Claes Nellestam, POC’s Design Director, “It has often meant we must pave our own way, and our new seasonal collection is no different. POC silhouettes speak for themselves, and inspired by our Scandinavian heritage, our designs are cleaner, more minimalist and classic. We are delighted with the result and hope to inspire more and more people to protect themselves by making the products and apparel they choose to wear.”
