CEBU, Philippines - Habagat Outdoor Equipment, the country’s pioneer in outdoor equipment and activities, launched its new products for summer last April 16 at SM City Cebu featuring apparel, buoyancy aid line for various water sports, Sniper and Snipet D-SLR camera bags, and two new bags from the Clean Earth Campaign Series: Deputy and Inspector.
• Shoot away with the Sniper! This camera bag is for the adventurous photography buff. It’s made of heavy gauge water-repellant Kodra 500D fabric, and can carry most D-SLR cameras with a standard lens, a long lens, flash, and other accessories. It features adjustable internal dividers for precise gear protection, multiple pockets for accessories, side loops and compression straps for holding tripod/s, internal drawstring closure for added security from theft, a removable sling strap for carrying comfort, and a lifetime guarantee of durability that only Habagat can provide.
• Cotton Canvass Bag is reusable and eco-friendly. The Clean Earth Campaign Series is a continuing line of products based on Habagat’s Clean Earth Campaign launched in 2010 with the release of the Earth Bag – a heavy-duty canvas bag designed to replace the conventional plastic bags used when shopping or doing the groceries. The campaign is Habagat’s open invitation to everyone to start embracing an eco-friendly lifestyle.
“We, at Habagat, do not just go out and enjoy the outdoors. We are also aware of our roles as ecological stewards. We carefully pieced together our campaign to reinforce our commitment to taking care of the environment. During summer, a lot of people do outdoor activities such as traveling, hiking, island-hopping, kayaking, or simply going to the beach. We want to help heighten their awareness not just in what is happening to the planet but also in what they can do, what they can contribute to make things better. At the very least, they can stick to the old rule: Take nothing but photographs; leave nothing but footprints,” said Eduardo Solana Jr., general manager of Habagat.
Habagat Outdoor Equipment, the foremost outdoor equipment company in the Philippines, is dedicated to manufacturing affordable yet durable, high quality products; and advocating ecological stewardship and social responsibility. (FREEMAN)
