Helly Hansen collaborated with Soldier Design straight out of Boston and their resident artist Steve Costello and New Era to deliver the first Love flow product in 2006. This cap utilizes a proprietary, durable textured nylon with waterproof / breathable coating. The integrated stitch pattern is unique to geodesic dome technology, inspired by the infamous Buckminster Fuller, who was always working to advance humanitys option for success and doing “more with less”. Also notice the teardrop shape air holes! Custom LOVE embroidery on the inside. There is also a zip front hoodie with art by Steve Costello. This pack is limited to 500 pieces globally. There are also rumors of a special premium access card, you can’t purchase the card it has to be “handed” to you, which makes this even more exclusive because your internet skills will not help you on this one, you will actually have to go out and get your hands dirty!
