Welcome BACK! SO HERE IS OUR LAST EDITION FOR 2018 AND THE 8TH TIME WE’VE DONE THIS! TWO YEARS OF ZEN NEWS, PRODUCTS AND INSIGHTS. I’ve just spent the morning flicking through the last few copies and am impressed with the unwavering commitment our team has to our customers, brands and projects. This magazine really is a collaboration across multiple departments and a huge undertaking by our team. If you haven’t met Richard, he’s the one responsible for bringing this to you every 90 days, he’s always frantically chasing down brand managers, interrupting sales people and their lattes, collaborating with our busy team and then painstakingly pouring over all the content. Great work Rich!

I’m careful to say we’ve been busy, because that is an understatement. Our team has been sharply focused and driven to bring the best they can offer in their respective fields.

A company is only as strong as the people within it and I am thrilled to always see excellent contributions, ownership, passion and continued education with our team. I have never been as confident that this is our best team yet. I’m very proud of what our leadership team continues to create.

The next few months see’s a variety of projects, namely the #leatherman35 events we’re putting together. Stay tuned for more details as the dates approach. We’re also midway through launching some new leading brands, most notably inside is Overboard and QALO, read on for the introductions.

As we come closer to the holiday season (see enclosed last ship and closure dates) it is important to look through to 2019’s goals but more importantly cherish the time with family and friends. Personally, after a long (but somewhat freakishly fast) year I am looking forward to spending time with my wife and daughter. I do hope that with this copy, and every other edition, of the Zen magazine, you gain greater understanding and insight into our family of people.

Enjoy the read and I sincerely hope the work Rich and the team has put in is helpful.

WHAT'S HAPPENING AT ZEN S NUUN IS ONCE AGAIN TRACKSIDE AT SYDNEY'S CITY 2 SURF TO KEEP RUNNERS HYDRATED AND PERFORMING AT THEIR BEST.

ydney's annual City 2 Surf is the biggest fun run event in the world.

The 14km course starts from Hyde park in the CBD and wends its way through Sydney's streets to the coastline, finishing at iconic Bondi Beach. Each year it attracts tens of thousands of entrants, from world reknowned professional runners looking to finish first, to groups running for charity, to regular people looking to have fun and get a bit of exercise.

For the second year running, nuun was the offical hydration sponsor for the event. We had a number of hydration stations set up at various stages of the course giving participants the chance to get a quick hydration boost.

We received a lot of positive feedback from runners - they loved the taste and the fact that it's made using all natural ingredients. All in all it was fantastic to be out there supporting the event and we're looking forward to doing it again in 2019!

NOW AVAILABLE QALO are the wedding ring brand with a difference - a range of high-quality silicone bands for those that want to show their commitment while still leading active lifestyles.

In 2012, friends Ted Baker and KC Holiday each found themselves newly married, loving their wives but hating their wedding rings. They searched for a safe and comfortable alternative to their clunky metals rings that would allow them to both show their commitment to marriage and fit their active lifestyles. After a fruitless search, the pair decided to make their own and the QALO brand was born.

QALO rings are an excellent solution for men and women in professions that required more from their hands such as professional athletes, police, firefighters, military, emergency services, electricians and mechanics. The rings are made from an innovative, high-quality 100% medical-grade silicone material that's durable, non-conductive, temperature-tolerant and safe to wear, particularly in situations where the risk of ring avulsion is apparent.

For individuals who want to showcase their commitments without sacrificing safety or comfort, QALO is the answer.

THE CHOICE OF SUPERSTARS

QALO's popularity with professional athletes first became widespread news in 2013 when Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton wore his QALO ring on HBO's 'Hard Knocks', with the QB spending nearly five minutes discussing his ring on camera. The ring can now be found on the fingers of a number of high profile sportspeople including Lebron James, Steph Curry, Derek Carr, Julie Ertz and more.

REVIEW JUSTIN WALKER BRAVES THE ELEMENTS TO TEST OUT OUR WATERPROOF BACKPACK FROM NEW BRAND OVERBOARD.

"THE BACKPACK IS MADE USING A HIGH FREQUENCY WELDED CONSTRUCTION PROCESS, WHICH, AS STATED EARLIER, MEANS NO STITCHING AND NO SEAMS."

OVERBOARD 30L CLASSIC BACKPACK

JUSTIN WALKER DEPUTY EDITOR: 4 x 4 MAGAZINE Keeping your gear and valuables dry when you’re out on a paddling (canoe/kayak) adventure is always a bit of a challenge; drybags are a great option but if you’re after something you want to use for an after-paddle hike, then you really need a backpack-style waterproof system. Overboard’s Classic Waterproof Backpack is available in 20L, 30L (as tested here) and 45L capacity models, all of which feature the company’s unique seamless construction and roll-top closure that ensures zero water ingress. Even if it is accidentally dunked in the water, the Overboard Classic’s Class 3–IP66 waterproof rating means it will not only stop water ingress, but will float, making it easy to grab.

The backpack is made using a high frequency welded construction process, which, as stated earlier, means no stitching and no seams, so all your water-sensitive gear can be safely stored in it. The company tests the welds on all its products via a hydraulic compression tester that pushes air throughout the pack/drybag to test the strength of the weld. The 30L model’s dimensions (460mm high; 280mm wide; 240mm deep) are more than enough to pack a day (or more) worth of gear inside.

The pack itself weighs 840grams when empty so is also very easy to store when not in use.

Rather than the cheap, thin, poorly made straps you see on many waterproof ‘packs’, the Classic 30L harness system is robust and well designed. You don’t need a full-blown heavy harness system with a pack such as this (you wouldn’t use this for overnight hikes, for example), but the harness it does have is very supportive when the pack is loaded and on your back.

The amount of padding on the harness is not overly generous but it is padded effectively in the areas it needs to be – as is the lumbar support section (the lower part) of the pack. The adjustable sternum strap is also easy to use and adjust for different height users. The only thing missing is a waist strap but, as mentioned earlier, this pack is not a hike-based unit and for the shorter hikes and when portaging, for example, it is more than up to the job. For those times when you don’t want to throw it on your back, the roll-neck sides (when buckled together), combined with the large carry strap that goes over them and attaches to a velcro patch on the other side, offer an excellent carry handle option.

Having said that, during testing the Classic 30L has been pressed into service as this tester’s bike commuting pack in rainy weather and, once the harness and sternum strap

"RATHER THAN THE CHEAP, THIN, POORLY MADE STRAPS YOU SEE ON MANY WATERPROOF ‘PACKS’, THE CLASSIC 30L HARNESS SYSTEM IS ROBUST AND WELL DESIGNED."

are cinched down, it does stay relatively stable when riding, with only a small amount of side-to-side swinging. Again, that use is probably outside the pack’s intended use design DNA, but it still did the job. On a separate note, the pack’s reflective straps were appreciated during the commute testing as well and would be even more so if you were paddling at dusk/dawn or during the night, allowing boat lights to pick you out more clearly. Further assisting nighttime visibility with this pack is the ability to attach lighting, via the three D-rings affixed vertically to it.

One of the most appealing things with this backpack (and others of similar design) is the sheer simplicity of use – most notably in how it is sealed to ensure no water ingress. Simply rolling the opening neck closed and then buckling each of the ends’ clips together means there’s no worry about zips breaking – or of water getting through the zips (even supposed ‘water-resistant’ zips are not totally waterproof) – and you have a fully waterproof pack.

"SIMPLY ROLLING THE OPENING NECK CLOSED AND THEN BUCKLING EACH OF THE ENDS’ CLIPS TOGETHER MEANS THERE’S NO WORRY ABOUT ZIPS BREAKING – OR OF WATER GETTING THROUGH THE ZIPS."

For the price, and with the knowledge that it will last many years of service, the Classic 30L (and the other sizes in the range) is a no-brainer for anyone looking for superior water protection for their gear, whether they are serious paddlers, boaties or even general commuters.

TAKE A STEP INSIDE THE BRAND

QALO Founders KC Holiday (left) and Ted Baker (right).

From the Source's Mouth

IN THE BEGINNING IT WAS JUST TWO FRIENDS WORKING TOGETHER IN A GARAGE TO COME UP WITH AN ALTERNATIVE TO THEIR UNCOMFORTABLE METAL WEDDING RINGS. SIX YEARS LATER AND QALO IS ONE OF THE FASTED GROWING PRIVATE COMPANIES IN AMERICA AND MAKING SIGNIFICANT WAVES IN THE 16 BILLION DOLLAR WEDDING RING INDUSTRY. WE SPOKE WITH ONE OF THE FOUNDERS, KC HOLIDAY, TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE QALO STORY. When did the first get the idea for your products and how did you go about designing the prototype?

up the brand we wanted to create. It stands for Quality, Athletics, Love and Outdoors. It is pronounced Kay-Low.

The idea really was created organically through the search for a solution. Both Ted and I married our wives in 2012, and worked together in Los Angeles. One day in passing at work, we started discussing how annoying it is to wear a metal wedding ring. We found ourselves taking our rings on and off constantly, scratching it at the gym, or just not wearing it at all. We were excited to be newly married and wanted to have the ability to represent the commitment we made to our spouses 24/7 without the hassle of taking a ring on and off. After realising no solution existed, we created QALO.

Once you had your initial QALO ring design finalised, how did you go about getting the business off the ground and marketing your product?

Where does the brand name QALO come from and how exactly do you pronounce it?

QALO is an acronym that we hoped would sum

I will always say that nothing replaces hard work, regardless of how much experience you have or how great your product may be. Ted and I were not business experts, but we worked extremely hard to learn. Once the ring was created we searched for an e-commerce platform that would give us the opportunity to sell our product.

The first six months were really just proof of concept; will anyone besides the two of us view this as a solution? We shamelessly reached out to as many people we could with influence: bloggers, athletes, social influencers and friends. We did as much as we could to determine if it was real.

A lot of high profile sporting celebrities wear QALO rings.

Which sports person have you been most excited to see wearing QALO and have any of these sporting stars contacted or met with you personally?

There are a ton of professional athletes wearing the product, which has led to some pretty incredible moments. I would have to say the most excited I have been about an athlete wearing QALO was this year when Lebron James was spotted wearing it. The first time we noticed it was when he signed his deal with the Los Angeles Lakers, which was even more exciting considering we’re about 45 minutes south of Los Angeles. We have dialogue with quite a few athletes and sent Lebron a pretty cool “Welcome to Los Angeles” box with customised goods, which he was seen wearing right after he received it. That kind of interaction is powerful and we don’t take it for granted.

QALO have quite a wide range of different designs and colours in their range of wedding bands for both men and women. Where do you get the inspiration for all the different models and are any of them the result of feedback from customers?

We have a full in-house creative product team that concepts all of our new products. We also work with outside partners to help gain inspiration. Paying attention to fashion trends is valuable, but when you created an entire ring category the pressure is on you to continue to innovate and we welcome the challenge. One of our proprietary materials, Q2X, was the result of direct feedback from customers who spend their days working with their hands. It is 10x more resistant to gas and solvents, making it the only option for people who want their ring to stand up to the test of hard-working hands.

QALO rings aren’t just worn by sports-people – they’re also quite popular with tradesmen, emergency service workers and military personnel. Have you heard any interesting stories (e.g. a life-saving situation) from this type of wearer that involved a QALO?

The amount of stories we’ve received over QALO breaking and saving peoples fingers is incredible. There are very few products that when they break the customer calls to sing the company’s praises, but that is exactly how it is at QALO. Our lifetime warranty ensures our customers are happy and the functionality of the product is proven to be a benefit.

What are your future plans for the brand? Have you considered any other types of wearable items?

The future plan for the brand is to celebrate not just the married couple, but the entire family as a whole.

We believe the most important element of your life is the family you come home to or surround yourself with each day and we want to create products that help to celebrate that commitment. We’re always exploring new options for wearables and we’re excited about where the company is headed.

Your company is based in Santa Ana, California.

What you love about your local area and what do you do in your spare time to relax and have fun?

Where we’re located in California is great because we’re about 20 minutes to the beach and 90 minutes from the mountains. Locally, we enjoy getting outside and exploring with our kids and our dogs. I have two large huskies and a one year old boy who don’t let me sit on my butt, so we’re always exploring and going on adventures.

It’s important we practice what we preach.

REVIEW LEDLENSER'S INNOVATIVE NEW ML6 RECHARGEABLE LANTERN GETS A GLOWING REVIEW FROM JUSTIN WALKER. "THERE’S ALSO A POWER BANK IN THE ML6, IDEAL FOR RECHARGING MOBILE PHONES."

Ledlenser ML6 Rechargeable Lantern

JUSTIN WALKER DEPUTY EDITOR: 4 x 4 MAGAZINE

You can never have too much camp lighting, but you can also always do with said camp lighting being versatile and thus eliminating the need to pack three different lights in your vehicle or backpack so you’re covered for all potential lighting requirements. Having to lug numerous lights/ torches adds weight, takes up space and can complicate things (especially if each of them uses a different power source, i.e. batteries and/or rechargeables or USB-only charging).

The ideal around-camp light should be able to be set up easily in your tent, and just as easily be unhooked and carried around for necessary lighting when you’re in the back of your vehicle, trying to find a certain item in your camp boxes or backpack, or for camp kitchen lighting.

ADAM DENISON

IAN WALKER

BRAND MANAGER

CUSTOMER SERVICE OFFICER

WHAT DO YOU DO AT ZEN?

WHAT DO YOU DO AT ZEN?

I am the Brand Manager for Klean Kanteen, nuun hydration, Atka and QALO. My role is to represent the beliefs, mission’s and standards of each brand while providing education, opportunities and solutions to our retail market and customers.

I am one of the Customer Service Officers here at Zen. I have a very varied role here, processing orders and helping resolve our customers’ enquiries personally via phone calls or via email, chatting online with our Zenport customers or even when they drop by our front desk.

WHAT’S THE COOLEST THING YOU’RE WORKING ON RIGHT NOW?

WHICH ZEN PRODUCT IS YOUR FAVOURITE AT THE MOMENT?

Launching QALO to the Australian retail market. QALO rings are worn by some of the best sports stars in the world, so being able to manage this brand is such a fun and exciting opportunity.

I really like my Klean Kanteen Stainless Insulated 8oz Tumbler, which I always take with me to fill up at the local café. It keeps my coffee hot while I’m struggling with the 'DA' crossword at the weekend.

IF YOU COULD VISIT ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD YOU’VE NEVER BEEN, WHERE WOULD YOU GO?

WHAT ARE THREE THINGS STILL LEFT ON YOUR BUCKET LIST?

I'd love to take my family to Anchorage, Alaska and see the Great Northern Lights. It's been part of my bucket list for ages so once my son Charlie is a little older we are definitely going to take a trip there, with maybe a detour to see the town of Atka off the coast.

WHAT’S THE CRAZIEST THING YOU’VE EVER DONE? Running 8 Marathons in 8 Days across every state/ territory in Australia. This was an event I personally organised in memory of my Grandma June Reay who passed away from Breast Cancer in 2012 after fighting it for 4 years. I raised funds for BCNA (Breast Cancer Network Australia). The total km run was 337.56km and just over $12000 was raised for Breast Cancer Network Australia

WHAT’S YOUR FAVOURITE SEASON (SPRING, SUMMER, ETC.) AND WHY? Definitely Spring - most days the sun is out but it is not too hot where you'll get burnt. There's still a crispness to the air in the morning and it's the perfect temperature for exercising.

I’ve always had a love of languages since studying Latin, Greek and French at school and would love to be fluent in a foreign language such as Korean, which I have dabbled with. It would be nice to be able to say a bit more than ‘Hello’ and ‘Thank you’ on my visits there.

As I like sport and have never been to China, the 2022 Asian Games in Hangzhou are something I have on my radar at present. And of course to travel First Class!

WHAT WAS THE BEST CONCERT YOU EVER ATTENDED? Dire Straits supporting Talking Heads was a concert I’ve never forgotten. David Byrne and Mark Knopfler on the same bill!

YOU'RE TRAPPED ON A DESERT ISLAND. WHICH THREE ZEN PRODUCTS WOULD YOU WANT TO HAVE ON YOU? I’d be trying to escape, so I’d have my trusty Leatherman Signal, with its firestarter and emergency whistle to help me attract attention. My Ledlenser F1 with its Blink mode and my Overboard Pro-Vis 100% Waterproof Backpack in bright Hi-Vis Orange, to keep my precious bits and pieces dry.
