Sherpa Adventure Gear was founded by Tashi Sherpa in Nepal in 2003. The inspiration for the brand comes from the colorful culture of the Himalayas and the spirit of high-altitude mountaineering. In their designs you’ll find modern materials and performance technologies, but the bright colors and detailed patterning speaks to the ancient heritage of Nepal and the spirit of the Sherpa tradition.

Based in North Vancouver, British Columbia, Arc’teryx has enviable access to the Canadian Coast Mountain wilderness literally out the back door of the brand’s head office. Prototypes are constructed in-house by designers and product experts who are then able to field test locally in exceptional conditions, or put their creations on outdoor athletes right at home and make performance-enhancing refinements with little turn-around time. As a result, Arc’teryx builds gear based on a “design with intent” ethos that promises all their products can withstand the extreme demands of the mountains.

As a backpacker or hiker, it’s important to find the gear that fits you well to keep you happy and moving on the the trails. With the Mountainsmith WSD (Women’s Specific Designs) Gear Collection, you’ll find ultra durable packs with excellent organization, female-friendly contoured shoulder straps and shorter torso lengths, as well as trekking poles with less bulky grips designed specifically for women to maximize comfort and usability.
