Outdoor brands HELINOX and FINISTERRE have announced details of a second collaboration, following the success of a project in 2021. The Helinox x Finisterre Tactical Sunset Chair combines an aluminium frame using Helinox’s proprietary green anodization technology with 100% recycled polyester seat material by Finisterre.
It has a high back for added support and comfort; features include side pockets and a bag that can be turned into a head cushion. The chair has a weightbearing capacity of 145kg and weighs just 1.35kg, packing down into a bag measuring only 47cm x 14cm x 12cm.
Joe White, head of marketing for Helinox Europe, said, “It is always fun to work with a crew of like-minded folk on a collaboration like this. The challenge of bringing the unique capabilities of two brands together to make one product is an exciting and rewarding experience.
“Finisterre is a leader in sustainable soft goods, and we have worked hard to clean up the aluminium manufacturing process with our green anodization technology. Bringing these skills together, we’ve created a chair made from more sustainable materials that will stand up to use and abuse for many years.”
A Todd, head of design at Finisterre, added, “It’s been fantastic to work with such a like-minded partner. Helinox builds the very best camp chairs on the market and we couldn’t get that technology anywhere else. The quality is totally inimitable.”
