Topo Designs was born in 2008 in a Fort Collins, Colorado basement, where two friends, Jedd and Mark, began sewing packs that combined old-school durability with modern style. Their goal was to make gear “tough enough for the outdoors, but sleek enough for the city”, blurring the line between mountain trails and urban streets. Today, Topo Designs is known for its colorful retro packs, apparel, and accessories that you can take from a hike straight to happy hour. The brand’s ethos centers on versatility, quality, and doing right by both customers and the planet. They offer lifetime warranties on bags and run a Repairs Program to keep beloved gear in action – ultimate sustainability through longevity. Topo is also a leader in eco-friendly materials: as of now, 82% of their products are made with organic or recycled fabrics, and they ship everything in compostable or recycled packaging. From carbon-neutral goals to ethical manufacturing audits, Topo Designs walks the talk. In short, this family-owned brand delivers “built for anywhere” gear that’s as responsible as it is reliable.
