Order the Astral Green Jacket LE4 today!


Alpenglow is now taking orders for the newest collection in the Astral Green Jacket. Call or email us now to order. Limited quantities. The LE4 is the result of a collaboration between the Astral design team and artist Meg Smith. Meg is the wife of Astral team paddler Jakub Nemec who hails from the Czech Republic, and he was inspirational in helping Meg with the aesthetic design. Meg (from the US) is a graphic designer and passionate kayaker with an eye for style. You can see more of her work here:

The LE4 brings a higher visibility option to the LE series that would make Kobe Bryant proud. We are using a combination of heat transfer and embroidery on the back and the front features a unique font created by Meg. Each LE sports an iconic figure, and this time “bootie guy” raises a toast to his swim.

This jacket is currently in production and we are building only 400 units total. Each jacket is hand crafted at the Astral mothership in Asheville, NC by our talented sewing staff.

Stohlquist Rocker PFD review by Alpenglow

Stohlquist Rocker PFD will be a HIT! Comfort is great, freedom of movement is off the charts, and it comes with all the features one would expect from Stohlquist.
