Partners - Sponsors | François D'Haene

Equipment

Salomon has been my leading and long-term sponsor on the trails since 2009. I share the brand’s values whole-heartedly and try to convey this in my sport. They are a multi-disciplinary brand that enables me to progress in the mountains throughout the year, with efficiency, lightness and comfort. I try to be involved as much as possible with the various designers, who have subsequently become friends, to develop products and it is with enormous pleasure that every day I discover the innovative ideas that constantly erupt. Thanks to Salomon products, the athletes and their developers, I can live at the forefront of my sport and enjoy the magic that is trail running.

Since our atypical meeting in 2016, we decided to try together the adventure of a partnership. A challenge at all levels to help us each other. To evolve the products, to be interested in the creation of these by insisting on their quality and their origin. Participating and knowing the life of the company are the first steps…look forward to continuing this story…

In the mountains, more than elsewhere, sun protection is crucial. It is necessary to have sunglasses that are adapted and reflective for each specific activity. To be able to benefit from the experience of other athletes and from the Cébé brand with high performance sunglasses is therefore a massive advantage for me.

For me ultra trail and outdoor adventure are really similar. It means that I have to be in the nature day and night really often. Being confident in your material and your headlamd which allow you to see all the terrain in every condition is really important.

Since many years now we work together with the Silva brand to develop and play in the mountain with an amazing and efficient material…

Suunto, like Salomon, is my long-standing sponsor and I immediately fell in love with their watches. Simple, effective, adapted to the mountains and my various activities, discreet and ever evolving, I never go anywhere without one!

The Beaufortain Region is an area I hold close to my heart, where I have been going since I was a child. Accessible, wild, preserved, extremely diverse and adapted to all types of sport, for me it is the ideal place to combine competitions, training sessions and relaxing with the family. So it is a genuine pleasure for me to fullfil the role of ambassador for the Beaufortain Region.

Due to where I live and my activities I am on the road throughout the year. Whether for my races, training sessions or deliveries, I need a reliable and efficient means of transport in all types of conditions. The opportunity to collaborate with Volvo and the automobile group Félix Faure, who are based in Lyon, provided the ideal solution.

Firstly, it is interesting to point out that there are several trail runners in our company and so what could be better than having the world reference of this sport as our ambassador.

What is more, François D’Haene’s principle values go hand-in-hand with our brand values:

Our customers drive a Volvo, yet they have the financial means to buy a BMW, the reason being that they desire a car that is reliable and robust but not openly ostentatious.

We are not looking for a “Bling Bling” image and François D’Haene is in perfect harmony with our Volvo image (Design – Safety – Reliability – Discretion)

It is important for me to work with brands and teams with whom I share the same values. Beyond appearances, ultra trail is not an individual sport, it implies a true team spirit in which everyone is given a vital role and in which everyone supports and helps each other to move forward, always further in the best conditions. It is this spirit that I find in LED IT besides dynamism and a taste for challenge and improvement everyday. The company, specialized in LED lighting solutions, is focused on the future and on the world. Together, we work on perpetuation and development of these core values by learning from each other.
