Sea to Summit was born from an epic adventure – it’s literally named after an Everest expedition where one of its founders trekked from sea level all the way to the summit. Started in 1991 by Aussie outdoor gear prodigy Roland Tyson (who began sewing gear at 17) and adventurer Tim Macartney-Snape, the brand carries that spirit of innovation and audacity in every product. They’re known for making ultralight, bombproof outdoor equipment that enables “freedom and self-reliance in any environment” – whether you’re on a weekend hike or a month-long expedition. Despite their serious dedication to quality, Sea to Summit infuses a bit of Aussie humor and practical design smarts into their gear, keeping things fun and functional. Plus, their love of wild places drives a strong sustainability ethos: they use recycled materials, design products to last, and even contribute 1% of certain sales to conservation efforts. In short, Sea to Summit’s gear reflects its heritage of adventure, innovation, and respect for the great outdoors.
