Faction x Nespresso

Ever wondered where your coffee capsule ends up? Now, they’re partly used in your ski equipment.

In this exclusive brand collab, we’ve paired up as two Swiss brands with mountainous backyards, fusing material from recycled aluminium capsules into our products you can ride.

The Dancer 79 Nespresso is finished with aluminum plates made from recycled capsules, the Nespresso Pole is made from 100% recycled aluminium, with 27% sourced from used capsules. The rs 01 Nespresso recovery shoe includes 15% recycled coffee grounds in its design.

It’s a natural conversation between Swiss neighbors: us in the freeride capital of Verbier, and Nespresso in nearby Vevey. This collection takes some materials from your morning ritual and gives them another life cycle on the mountain.

Dancer 79 Nespresso

Introducing the Dancer 79 Nespresso. 

A true piste and carving ski, two sheets of titanal and poplar wood construction make for a choice blend of nimble handling, stability and high-speed edge hold, especially on hard-packed snow. 

The Dancer 79 Nespresso is partly made out of aluminium from 22 recycled capsules; just one of the ways this material gets another life cycle.

It’s designed for skiers who care about what's under their feet, in many more ways than one.

Faction Nespresso Pole

The ergonomic and lightweight Faction ski pole, made from 100% recycled aluminum. We took aluminium that already had one job and gave it another even cooler one on the mountain. This is a story that you’re a part of.

Built with ergonomic rubber grips and adjustable straps ensure comfort and dependability when arcing high-speed turns or wild bump runs. 

The structure of the Nespresso Pole is made from 100% recycled aluminum, with 27% sourced from used coffee capsules. The best equipment sometimes comes from the most unexpected places.

Phaenom rs 01 Nespresso

What you want after your boots come off. The rs 01 Nespresso blends 15% recycled coffee grounds in the vamp and outsole of the shoe. Cushioned, easy to slip on, satisfyingly toasty, and designed for feeling like you’re floating after the big day up there. Your après starts here.

The vamp material contains a 45% coffee ground blend and the outsole contains a 20% coffee ground blend, making up 15% of the shoe’s total weight.
