ELEMENT x HOTEL RADIO PARIS
A multi-layered collaboration proofed by Polartec
It’s all about new talents, creativity and community. Wherever you want to express yourself, whether in the city or the great outdoors.
It’s on this common ground that Element and Hotel Radio Paris, an independent community radio dedicated to musical exploration, have partnered up for Fall/Winter ’21. Together they are releasing a capsule collection featuring Polartec® – the inventor of technical fleece and innovator of performance fabric technologies for all conditions, to meet the needs of an active community. The range includes a selection of tees, fleeces, a jacket, pants, a vest, accessories, and a skateboard deck. Each garment is a nod to urban culture, the great outdoors and skateboarding.
“For Polartec, this collaboration with Element and Hotel Radio Paris is a fantastic platform to showcase Polartec’s abilities to create versatile fabrics that actually perform for the needs of new demographics. Think about a jacket you can ride, fish, dance, and go to work with. This is what Element created and we are proud to be part of a project that mixes technology, style, and art altogether”
– Eric Yung, Polartec, Vice President, International
