Like the waxed cotton Anoraks of the United States’ famed 10th Division, proper alpine sport pieces used to be built to last for a lifetime. This intention is at the heart of every Alps & Meters garment.
This 1-of-1 Mountain Memories Anorak Jacket is constructed from upcycled byproducts of the waxed cotton Alpine Anorak and the Alpine Guide Sweater - creating a hybrid anorak-style pullover that delivers a nostalgic promise of hand-me-down protection and longevity.
Crafted from recycled lambswool and merino from the R&D process for the Classic Waffle and Ski Race Knit sweaters
Utilizing material and garment by-products of the Research & Development workstream, and in partnership with Tersus Solutions, Alps & Meters is proud to present the Mountain Memories collection.
Conceived in the collective pursuit of restorative and regenerative best practices, these capsules will transform yarns, fabrics, and sewn fragments into new, limited edition alpine sportswear styles with an extended life, crafted in Denver, Colorado.
Sharp style and sharp edges were hallmarks of the racing class, the first downhillers born from the sports clubs of the early 20th century. Like the brash and eclectic personalities of skiing’s earliest champions, Alps & Meters Mountain Memories knitwear delivers a bold upcycled unification of R&D sweater fragments that embody the spirit of alpine sport’s earliest and most passionate competitors.
