Dakine gloves
Dakine, founded in Hawaii in 1979 and based at the foot of Mount Hood in Hood River, Oregon, produces backpacks, snowboard bags, snowboard gloves, and all sorts of other snowboard accessories.
Core Values of Dakine
Respect has always been a core value of Dakine. Initially, Dakine produced a surf line developed out of respect for the waves of Maui, primarily focused on the local community. The sea and the mountains are more than just a playground in the eyes of Dakine. Dakine sees these places as sanctuaries where relaxation and freedom come together. The efforts that Dakine makes in terms of sustainability are based on respect and appreciation for these places and relationships. Dakine believes that our planet and our communities need help, and ultimately we can have a positive impact on the world by reducing the product's impact, improving internal processes, and helping shared passions build a community of advocates.
Respect for Dakine Products
The best thing Dakine does is create an excellent product, but even the best product has an impact on the environment. Therefore, Dakine always works to minimize that impact while offering sustainability and functionality. Each year, Dakine improves its knowledge and material options, making it easier to approach product design with a variety of techniques that prioritize optimal performance and minimize environmental impact.
Sustainable Dakine Products
When making Dakine products, sustainability is the top priority. When equipment is designed to last, it is less likely to end up in a landfill. Dakine does its best to use materials that reduce impact on the environment and the people who work with them.
Each year, the range of Dakine expands, taking friendlier options into account.
Recycled Materials
Dakine has been using recycled PET materials for a long time, and every year they strive to use more without compromising on sustainability. The PET polyester fibers come from recycled plastic water bottles after use and are used in products ranging from backpacks to clothing.
Bluesign® Approved Materials
The bluesign® system validates the entire supply chain of a material to ensure it uses the most environmentally friendly chemistry and processes. Dakine uses bluesign™ approved materials throughout its entire line.
DWR Finish in Dakine Items
PFCs are chemicals commonly found in durable water-repellent (DWR) treatments used on performance-oriented gear and clothing to make textiles water-resistant. Some of these PFCs have been shown to pollute waterways. Therefore, Dakine works with its partners to increase the use of PFC-free and PFC(ec)-free DWR finishes.
