How it’s made
Nothing ships
until it survives.
I
Design
It starts with a failure — someone who was cold at 7,000 metres.
II
Prototype
A dozen versions of a single seam, until everything is right at once.
III
Field-test
Guides take it to the worst conditions we can find. On purpose.
IV
Refine
We listen to what broke, and we go back.
The technology
Three problems.
Solved properly.
Stay dry. Stay warm. Keep moving. Everything else is decoration.

From the people who rely on it
The only review that counts.
On the K2 winter attempt, the SUMMIT shell was the one piece of kit I never thought about. It just worked. That's the highest compliment I can give gear.
Elise MoreauAlpinist · 3× 8000mI've frozen in gear from every big brand. The GLACIER belay jacket is the first one that kept me moving on a -38°C bivouac. It earns its weight.

We make it for where it counts.
