Henri-Lloyd's new range of jackets and salopettes will be highly visible at this year's autumn boat shows with the vibrant Biscay and Sail Jackets, with matching Coastal Hi-Fit salopettes on display.
A familiar look, but with all the latest innovative features and fabric technology, comes from the Biscay Jacket. With its design inspired by Henri-Lloyd's original market-leading Biscay model, the new Biscay reflects the bold stripe and striking colours in red or navy blue interlaced with white. A true coastal/offshore companion born to withstand all conditions, the Biscay is made from 2-layer recycled PFC-free Dri Pro shell with taped seams to guarantee all-day 100% protection from any weather, ensuring comfort and protection for those unforgettable days at sea.
Key features include a high storm collar with fleece lining and zip chin guard for full-face protection, with double storm flap and double cuff design to prevent water or cold air getting inside the jacket. The laminated outer cuff adjusts with hook and loop closure while the inner PU cuff offers a soft, next-to-skin, waterproof barrier. The adjustable hi-visibility hood is easy to store and includes a drainage system to divert running water away from the peak. There are seven pockets, including double fleece-lined hand warmer pockets. Two large Union Jack reflectors ensure user visibility in low-light sailing and dark MOB situations.
The Biscay Jacket retails at £325 and is designed for Men in sizes Small to 3XL, and in a Women's cut to suit sizes XS to XXL.
Another popular jacket this year is the Sail Jacket, perfect for inshore, coastal sailing and shore wear. In a vibrant colour palette of red, ice, and navy blue, it is made from 2-layer recycled PFC-free Dri Pro shell and sealed seams. The Sail Jacket has 15k waterproof rating with a mesh and taffeta lining to ensure all-day protection from unpredictable weather conditions.
The Sail Jacket features include a dropped adjustable hem, soft fleece lining, easy access hood adjusters and mid-height collar with a microfleece chin guard. Laminated cuff adjusters and a secure hook and loop cuff closure guarantee long-lasting quality and a snug fit with asymmetric cuff ends providing extra protection for the hands. For enhanced visibility, the Sail jacket features three tonal reflectors and reflective Henri-Lloyd branding. The YKK Zip with an anti-corrosive aluminium puller and Vislon® AquaGuard® coil waterproof zippers on pockets ensure this jacket is long-lasting and durable.
The new Coastal Hi-Fit salopettes are designed to complement the Biscay and Sail Jackets, and are available in red and navy blue. Engineered for all-round protection during coastal and inshore sailing, the Coastal Hi-Fit are made from 2-layer PFC free Dri Pro fabric with taped seams and Cordura® reinforced knee, rear and heels to ensure long-term robustness and durability. Innovative side panels provide significant extra comfort, flexibility and temperature control when in use all day long. The taffeta lining protects the waterproof layer whilst offering easy donning and doffing with no inter-layer grab.
Lined chest pockets are easy to access, and the quick drying liner and water drainage system helps keep hands drier and warmer next to the body when on long passages, with useful large cargo leg pockets secured with envelope hook and loop closures and water drainage holes. The hi-fits also feature reflective Henri-Lloyd logos for better visibility in low light situations.
Available in Men sizing S-XXL, and in Women from XS to XXL, the back waist adjuster ensures a snug and comfortable fit. In addition, the Women's Coastal Hi-Fits feature a drop seat, carefully designed over the decades to provide maximum comfort and convenience with non-corrosive Vislon® AquaGuard® zips for longevity. The Coastal Hi-Fits retail at £250.
Also on show, and available online at www.henrilloyd.com is the full range of Henri-Lloyd's base, mid and outer layers, technical polo shirts, Explorer shorts and trousers, linen Oxford shirts, and short and long sleeve Tee's.
