Combining progressive tailoring with technical performance, ISAORA encompasses a sophisticated yet relaxed vibe. Highlighting the ISAORA Fall/Winter 2011 collection is a collaborative Insulated GORE WINDSTOPPER Jacket with Japan’s Diffeducation. Featured in black and red plaid the jacket is teched out with waterproof zips and all that.

Technically inclined New York City label ISAORA presents their Fall/Winter 2011-12 Collection lookbook. Sit back and watch, you’re sure to find something that works for your wardrobe.

ISAORA’s signature high-performance ultra-light ripstop 3-layer hard-shell hooded jacket features YKK Aquaguard® Waterproof zips and is perfect for riding, biking, or just straight up wearing. Looks great in white. Kind of like a Stormtrooper. Grab one via ForwardForward or direct from ISAORA.

NYC-based technical outerwear label ISAORA and Japanese luggage brand Porter developed two new bags together for Fall/Winter 2011. One is a snowboard bag that converts into an army style duffle (seen above) and the other is a “boot bag” pack sack, inspired by the classic Poirier Pack STRAP Sack. We’re all for functional and good-looking product, and these both fit the bills perfectly.

At Capsule Paris we spotted this new collaboration between high end snowboard clothing maker Isaora and Porter of Japan. The two brands worked on a messenger bag and a backpack, both featuring lots of functionality and details, making the two pieces perfect for the slopes and the city. Isaora decided to use their technically enhanced denim on the backpack, as the material is also featured in their Spring/Summer 2011 Collection. We will keep you posted about a release.

More detailed images of the collaboration follow after the jump.

Earlier this year we gave you a look into a new brand called ISAORA, who are producing hi-end, snowboard inspired apparel. The debut collection presented a very impressive range, blending technical materials with stylish cuts and attractive color options. For spring we see a slightly more adventurous approach with red and plaid palettes in the line, though the patterns and colors are still much more subdued than what we’re used to seeing from the usual suspects in snowboarding. In other words, we like this.

Today we bring you a first look at new brand Isaora, the first high end, snowboard inspired apparel line. We have seen high end lines in the ski circus, and from a technical stand-point we of course already get lots of good gear from the existing players in the snowboarding market. Nevertheless the approach by Isaora is refreshing and new – snowboarding apparel that looks good both on and off the slope.

Isaora stays away from strong colors, which is a first distinction between them and most of the rest of the market. Furthermore they use innovative fabrics and all their goods come with really clean cuts, almost like a Dior Homme for snowboarders.

After the jump you can have a look at the Isaora debut collection for Fall/Winter 2009/10.
