About

Outdoor gear and consumer products, designed to be made.

We design products for outdoor and action sports brands and carry them to production: research, prototypes, tooling and the first run, with the founder in the room. Industrial design, material knowledge and manufacturing experience in one small team. Durable, repairable, responsibly made, from performance gear to everyday essentials.
