ENVIRONMENTAL INTEGRITY

We didn’t stop at purchasing carbon offsets—because meaningful impact happens when a brand is built on a foundation of environmental integrity.

No greenwashing. No glossy certificates. Operating sustainably isn’t always glamorous. It often looks like optimized supply chain management and auditing carbon offsets for additionality. We do the dirty work because it matters—to us and to our customers.

BETTER BY DESIGN

The days of trading performance for sustainability are in the past. Throughout our product line you’ll find recycled fabrics, materials that meet Bluesign® criteria, and high-performance PFAS-free coatings. We develop and test all materials to failure, to ensure they perform as long as possible.Sustainable products start with smart design. When you experience our gear in person, it’s immediately obvious that it’s built to last. Quality materials, robust zippers, and mil-spec–inspired construction set our gear apart. Then we take it a step further, with true-to-brand, borderline-insane, real-world testing to prove it.

CARBON OFFSETS

We’re committed to offsetting carbon emissions on all shipments traveling from our manufacturers to our U.S. distribution network. We’re selective about the agencies we work with, ensuring all projects are third-party certified, audited, and meet rigorous standards for additionality.
