CANOPY 283

The Canopy 283 is unique and made from a Cabrinha Vector 7m² kite that was manufactured in 2011.

This kite soared over the waves of Kalpitiya Lagoon, where steady winds meet the Indian Ocean. It carries the spirit of Sri Lanka’s west coast and the freedom of its endless horizon.

Each Canopy jacket is tailor-made to order, crafted individually from a unique kite sail. This ensures that no two pieces are ever the same — every stitch, cut, and color tells its own story. Because of this meticulous process, orders placed now are expected to arrive in late December, just in time for winter’s first winds.

The Canopy collection is known as the best windbreaker in the world. Leveraging its previous duty of harnessing the wind, it provides exceptional wind resistance.

Inside, the jacket features a lining made from recycled polyester, complete with a zip chest pocket for valuables and a large open pocket, perfect for carrying books or a water bottle. 

While the kite fabric was naturally waterproof when new, it has lost some of its factory perks due to long exposure to the elements, and we do not guarantee its full waterproofness.

Please note: the final product may vary slightly in pattern, texture, and tone, reflecting the authentic character of the sail.
