Halti Becomes A Four-Time ISPO Award Winner
Finland’s leading outdoor brand Halti (www.halti.com) has become a four-time ISPO Award winner after the Bergga Warm Parka won a prestigious ISPO Award.
Each year the sporting goods industry’s well respected ISPO trade show honours the most exceptional products with an ISPO Award. Independent and international experts are judging several hundreds of products to established criteria.
More than 40 innovative products had made it into the final selection and were tested and judged by sports experts in Garmisch Partenkirchen. Halti’s Bergga Warm Parka from the urban collection Kallio by Halti was selected as a ISPO Award 2022 winner.
The collection Kallio by Halti was launched in August 2022. At Halti, they have decades of experience in the ruthless arctic weather. Their roots are in the northern climate and its stark extremes. However, the urban laws of nature can be just as fierce as the outdoor wilderness. That’s why they created Kallio – a Nordic urban line with premium functionality and minimalistic elegance. Kallio brings Halti’s frontrunning design into the urban scenery with passion, style and ease.
"By combining urban design with clever technical features, the Bergga Warm Parka stands out from classic winter jackets. Particularly noteworthy is the 3D tunnel construction on the inside, which allows good insulation at low weight”, states Andi Spiess, the jury member of ISPO Award and editor at large for ISPO.com.
Hanna Koivula, Designer of the Kallio collection talks about the creative process behind Bergga jacket: “Bergga Warm Parka jacket originates from the passion to create a premium synthetic-filled winter coat with the poise of a down parka. Thinking of the whole lifecycle of a garment, it boosted us to find innovative solutions. Now we can proudly apprise that Bergga is one of Kallio® by Halti® collection´s monomaterial items. The secret behind the airy warmness is the 3D air-flow tunnel and double front construction. Elegant and technical shell fabric provides weather protection even against the roughest winds and downpours. With thoughtful detailing as long side zippers, roomy pockets, and stylish black reflective elements, we wish to ease the complex city life. With contemporary yet timeless design Bergga will deliver warmth and shelter for years to come.”
