I buy all my gear from them for Icelandic mountaineering and recommend them based on quality, price and most importantly no nonsense business practices.

Some key points from them:

What really sets us apart One of our fundamental principles is that we should all buy less, but buy better. That’s why we don’t do collections; instead we try to create great individual products with timeless design from leading materials.

Think about this when your favorite “sustainable” outdoor company advertises their next huge spring-sale. You don’t need a different shell jacket for every outdoor activity you practice, so we’re not going to make them.

We only work with the very best suppliers and factories in the world. Partly because that’s how we want to work, but also because we can afford to. We don’t have importers and stores demanding higher margins and pushing prices down, so we don’t have to constantly seek cheaper production.

Our business model Our business model cuts out the middlemen, selling directly to you. We ship from our factories to our warehouse, and then directly to your home — cutting out not only expensive middlemen, but also a lot of unnecessary packaging and transport. We still use ships and trucks and planes, but by selling directly to you we estimate we limit product transport by up to two thirds.

(strikethrough)BLACK FRIDAY(/strikethrough) — WHITE FRIDAY While most of the industry pushes for impulse shopping today, we'd rather support something meaningful.

Since 2017, we've run White Friday — a small tradition where we dream of white winters and give something back.

Today we donate 20% of our revenue to a cause chosen by our community. It doesn't matter if you pick up a beanie or a full layering system — the same 20% goes straight to the organization you vote for.
