Friedrichshafen trade show 2016

The Outdoor Summer Trade Fair invites visitors every summer to make the journey to the city of Friedrichshafen, located on the shores of Lake Constance (Bodensee). The fair showcases the latest innovations for the upcoming year in the fields of clothing and technical equipment.

When it comes to clothing, the key advancement is that garments will be even lighter, made from interesting combinations of different materials, designed to meet the needs of a broader range of users. Colors will also remain vibrant in the coming year, with plenty of opportunities to mix and match various shades.

The company Wild Country introduced their new revolutionary belay device, the R-EVO, which is sure to change opinions about belaying in climbing areas. Additionally, the new belay devices will come in various colors, which will particularly appeal to the fairer sex.
