More on the F/V Northwestern Crew appearance at Macy’s
Posted by opilia on December 3, 2007
The Hansen’s along with Matt Bradley were booked to make multiple appearances today, at local Seattle Macy’s Department stores where they represented their official brand of Helly Hansen clothing.
To the left is the new Hansen logo that appears on their line of the Helly Hansen gear. To the right is a message from Capt. Sig, endorsing Helly Hansen. It states, “My brothers and I have worn Helly Hansen since we were kids. My great grandfather even wore Helly. We’re fourth generation fishermen and in our industry we need durable gear. Our lives depend on it.”

In addition to the Macy’s appearance today, there was another event that Sig Hansen was connected to…The 32nd annual Hutch Holiday Gala was held in Seattle, an event that raises millions of dollars for cancer research. One of the prizes auctioned off was, “an Alaskan king crab dinner prepared by Seattle chef Tom Douglas and attended by Capt. Sig Hansen of The Discovery Channel’s reality show
“Deadliest Catch,” which sold for $20,000″

Very cool. Sig really is one of the hardest working guys out there. Nice to see him going for some good causes.
Wouldn’t I LOVE to win that dinner.

I also would love to gone to that dinner as well and I like the fact that money went to cancer research, I lost a family member to a type of cancer. Do you know if these guys are going to make an appearance on any of the Macy’s on the East Coast?

I had the pleasure of meeting Edgar at the Helly Hansen store in Newport Rhode Island over this past weekend of March 31st of 2008 . He is a great guy and you can tell that he love signing autographs and taking pictures. I was really impressed with his outgoing personality and there was no one there to rush you along, so if you had any questions, he was more than happy to answer them for you . I bought a t-shirt at the Helly Hanson store for $25 and it is of high quality. It was a little bit on the high side, but in this case, it was more than worth it!!!
