Chris Benchetler Collection Protective Soc

Old Man Winter, inspired by California’s past five year drought, is one of Chris Benchetler’s most popular works. In the design, Old Man Winter prays for snow.

The interconnection soc depicts the connection that Mother Nature and Old Man Winter have with each other, the land, animals, trees, waves, weather and humans.

In ski and board lingo, a white room is when a skier’s vision is obscured by all of the snow kicked up while making epic turns in deep, fresh powder. This is the sensation that Chris Benchetler captures in the Into the White Room soc.

The phylogenetic parallel soc shows, in an explosion of colour, how our earthly elements have grown together and exist in perfect harmony.

The Cordilla soc is classic Chris Benchetler, portraying the harmonious unity that humans have with animals, trees, waves and weather.
