    White Sierra Doubles Fall Collection; Addresses Trends with Affordable Prices for the Casual Outdoor Consumer

    White Sierra Inc., an outdoor apparel brand dedicated to delivering performance apparel at value prices, brings its expanded Fall 2012 apparel collection to the Outdoor Retailer Winter Market trade show in Salt Lake City, January 19-22. Drop by booth #19033 to review the entire line – of which over half the styles are new.

    “White Sierra is helping more and more consumers get outside and enjoy being on the mountain by offering an expanded line of easy to wear apparel and outerwear that’s also easy on the wallet,” said Kevin Hobday, Vice President of Sales at White Sierra, Inc. “These accessible offerings not only help the industry grow but they also challenge the industry on value-driven merchandising.”

    White Sierra addresses trends in the marketplace by offering traditional outdoor pieces in a variety of casual silhouettes at affordable prices. For example, White Sierra reinterprets the classic technical fleece to offer warm, easy to wear fashion opportunities such as the peacoat-inspired styling of the Women’s Kavina Coat. Expanded fleece offerings also include new textures such as Highlander Sherpa, Kodiak Fleece, and Microtek Fleece.

    New softshell silhouettes also compliment the line, such as the South Shore Hooded Softshell, a waterproof breathable hooded softshell with a patchwork fleece-lined hoody for added comfort and warmth on the slopes.

    White Sierra also delivers on-snow performance in a variety of styles that look just as trend-right in an urban environment. Earthy color tones dominate the men’s line, with the addition of twills, plaid, and patchwork tweeds.  Women will enjoy the new collection of plush fabrics, embossings and textures ignited with new colors to brighten any wardrobe like Deep Purple, Harbor Teal, Honeysuckle, Kermit, Blueberry, and Aqua Green.

    Jacket systems continue to be a mainstay for White Sierra with plenty of new styles to meet today’s trends on the mountain in any kind of weather.

    The line-up of new styles from White Sierra is testament to its commitment to designing apparel that delivers strong retailer margins to its outdoor specialty retail partners. Drop by the new White Sierra booth (located at #19033), featuring an outdoor-inspired A-frame with warn, natural hardwoods.
