It’s refreshing to see again this season a growing number of interactive jackets for the winter season making simple tasks like music player control and phone calls convenient while outdoors and concentrated on action sports or just strolling around town.

Refreshing also to see wearable technology integrated not only in high end, high priced clothing but in more reasonable priced items as well taking away the myth that this kind of technology is too expensive to be available in mid range products.

Mission accomplished by Quiksilver, a funky, hip jacket for the connected people with an action rich lifestyle.
