Arc’teryx is breaking new ground with its FW24 Grottoflage Collection, introducing the brand’s first-ever print design in its freeride lineup. Inspired by the popularity of the iconic Grotto toque, the Grottoflage collection brings a unique, camouflage-inspired print to the mountain, weaving elements of the Arc’teryx logo into a fresh and timeless aesthetic. The collection pairs functional, technical gear with a design that stands out, celebrating the brand’s alpine roots and outdoor lifestyle.
The Grottoflage Print: Where Style Meets Alpine Heritage
Grottoflage is more than just a print; it’s a reflection of Arc’teryx’s commitment to pushing boundaries in both performance and design. The pattern overlays a ground color with a screen-printed Arc’teryx logo, creating a bold and instantly recognizable look. The print covers nine items across men’s and women’s styles in the FW24 collection, including the popular Sentinel Jacket, Sabre Pant and Jacket, and Rho base layers.
Arc’teryx’s design team took a multi-seasonal approach with Grottoflage, treating it as a visual language that will evolve in future releases. With meticulous attention to detail, the designers focused on colorfastness to ensure that the print retains its vibrancy over time, even after exposure to sunlight, washing, or sweat. Using premium nylon face fabrics, the Grottoflage print brings an elevated, lasting quality that performs as beautifully as it looks.
A Collaboration Rooted in Adventure: The Atomic Maverick 115 CTI Arc’teryx Edition Ski
Taking the collection one step further, Arc’teryx has teamed up with Atomic to create the limited-edition Atomic Maverick 115 CTI Arc’teryx Edition ski, dressed in the Grottoflage print. This collaboration merges Arc’teryx’s innovative design ethos with Atomic’s technical prowess to honor their shared passion for the mountains. Born out of the alpine spirit that defines both brands, this ski is built for serious adventure and tested by Arc’teryx athlete Craig Murray, who brought his expertise to the development process.
The limited-edition ski is a testament to the brand’s dedication to high-performance, durable gear that inspires confidence on the mountain. Designed with the same care and technical precision as the apparel collection, the Atomic Maverick 115 CTI Arc’teryx Edition stands as a powerful expression of craftsmanship and a true nod to alpine culture.
