“Not Any Dye Applied.” That’s the code for Merrell’s new NADA jacket line, a series of waterproof/breathable shell jackets made for winter’s worst. Jacket’s like the Nanuk reduce environmental impact without sacrificing aesthetic. With no dye applied, the austere white coat is touted to dramatically decrease overall waste and pollutants put out in common manufacturing processes.
Men’s and women’s jackets available. Merrell’s NADA Cirque model, pictured above, costs $229. www.merrell.com
