Quiksilver offers a diverse line of products under its umbrella, including a complete clothing collection, accessories, eyewear, watches, and wetsuits. Quiksilver has become far more than just a fashion apparel firm over the years, though and now it is a company with deep roots in the history of the demanding outdoor sports lifestyle. A truly global brand, it remains a pioneering force in surfing, although it likes to test its skills in other areas too.

For this winter, Quiksilver launched their second interactive fashion line with the Last Mission Jacket that incorporates Fibretronic’s CONNECTED-wear technology, allowing to add any of the growing number of modules to control MP3 players, advanced iPod control or Bluetooth phones.

 

Featuring the CONNECTED-wear AC2 Volume Controller Module, the Last Mission Jacket is compatible with any MP3 player with a headphone port. The AC2 volume control module allows you to quickly adjust the volume of your player without the need to take it out of the pocket. Thus, while your player is housed by an internal pocket, the controls are located along the left sleeve.

 

Besides the media managing technology, the Last Mission Jacket boasts taped seams, removable hood, interior goggle pocket, stretch powder skirt with loops for connecting jacket to Quiksilver snowboard pants and a mesh/taffeta lining.

 

If you want to hold on to your Last Mission Jacket for a longer time, then you should always remember that you must disconnect and remove the AC2 module before washing. This interactive jacket is available in three styles and color combos and features a very attractive and, at the same time, highly practical design. You can purchase it online for approximately 200 US dollars, a more than fair price for such an item, taking into consideration its features and also its hipness.
