International Sailing Federation Announce New Clothing Supplier
September 1, 2011
The International Sailing Federation announced that Atlantis WeatherGear has been selected as the ISAF Race Officials Clothing Supplier.
It is a partnership that will see Atlantis supplying ISAF’s race official team with a range of clothing and accessories for the next four years.
Along with a kit including polo shirts, capsule baseball cap, ampoule watership hat and dry bags, ISAF’s Race Officials will be offered a selection of branded items from the Atlantis range. Designed by sailors for sailors, these will include the innovative Aegis Jackets and hybrid bibs from Atlantis’ coastal sailing collection, Grand Prix Softshell jackets and vests, and the ultra lightweight Microburst jacket and pants.
The on-water gear together with tech shirts and items from Atlantis’ “Deck-to-Dock” collection will offer ISAF’s race officials a combination of performance and style to keep them dry and comfortable whilst they are out on the water and looking smart and professional when they are ashore.
ISAF has over 700 volunteer race officials based around the world performing the roles of international judges, race officers, measurers and umpires at sailing events worldwide. Providing them with clothing is no simple task, so ISAF will be drawing on Atlantis’ experience and expertise to manage an on-line ordering system and delivery as well as offering high quality products that are proven to be fit for purpose.
Bill Lynn, Atlantis’ head of marketing, said: “We’re thrilled that ISAF has selected Atlantis as their clothing partner. This relationship will help us gain visibility for our brand at the world’s premiere sailing events while putting ISAF’s influential race officials in gear that they will love.”
