The FW24 Grottoflage collection marks a significant moment for Arc’teryx as its first print in its freeride collection. The camouflage-style print integrates elements of the Arc’teryx logo and was inspired by the success of Arc’teryx’s coveted Grotto toque.

The new Grottoflage collection pairs timeless colors with unique prints on nine products in the FW24 collection across men’s and women’s, including the Sentinel Jacket, Sabre Pant and Jacket, and Rho base layers.

As an extended part of the Grottoflage collection, Arc’teryx is partnering with Atomic, fellow Amer Sports brand, to launch a limited-edition ski in the same print: the Atomic Maverick 115 CTI Arc’teryx Edition. Merging Arc’teryx’s maker DNA with Atomic’s technical expertise, the Grottoflage freeride collection and limited-edition ski honors the brand’s shared passion for adventure.

DESIGN DETAILS

• The Grottoflage print design process begins with a ground color, overlaid with our logo through screen-printing.
• The Arc’teryx design team adopted a holistic, multi-seasonal approach to the Grottoflage collection. Guests can expect to see future evolutions of the Grottoflage print with evolution in colour, tone and contrast.
• Arc’teryx designers focused extensively on testing Grottoflage’s colourfastness, which tests how well a fabric keeps its color without fading or running, even when exposed to factors like washing, sunlight, or sweat.
• Grottoflage is printed on nylon face fabrics, ensuring a more premium design that is built to last.
• As an extended part of the freeride collection, Arc’teryx is partnering with Atomic to launch a limited-edition Grottoflage ski: the Atomic Maverick 115 CTI Arc’teryx Edition.

“We dissected our logo and created a textural pattern by layering the elements in shades of grey and black. Grottoflage is our take on a camouflage-style print and was inspired by the success of our coveted Grotto toque. We iterated on the concept countless times to perfect the visual, obsessing over every mark”  – Philip O’Sullivan, Director of Color and Graphics, Arc’teryx
