Mustang Survival, the Canadian brand known for innovative solutions for the most demanding marine environments, announces today the release of the redesigned EP 6.5 Ocean Collection. Built with Mil Spec 6.5 GORE-TEX Fabric —the same materials used in military and public safety gear—this collection is designed to keep offshore sailors dry and comfortable for optimal performance on open water.
“With the original EP Ocean Series, we set the bar high for durability, breathability, and waterproof protection. After gaining extensive feedback from countless nautical miles, we’ve improved our latest version to be lighter, less bulky, and better fitting,” says Hunter Lowden, Senior Product Manager of Mustang Survival and Olympic sailor. “The new EP Collection stays true to its predecessor’s purpose, helping sailors focus solely on their tasks on deck while chasing podiums, course records, and line honours.
This top-tier waterproof collection includes a redesigned jacket, spray smock, salopette, and a brand-new dry top. All the products integrate seamlessly together through fit and function creating the highest-performing offshore kit for optimal protection. Every EP piece that leaves the production line is 100% individually leak-tested to Mustang Survival’s dry suit leak test standards.
The new EP 6.5 Ocean Dry Top is the pièce de resistance. It’s the most rugged and waterproof shell in the Mustang Survival line-up. The innovative removable hood system with face coverage ensures that the garment can adapt to the user’s needs depending on their crew role, environmental exposure, and personal preferences.
