People Planet Promise
Our long-term commitment is to give back a minimum of 2% of profits to initiatives that support environmental protection, community access, and pathways into the outdoors for people who have historically been underrepresented.
Giving back doesn’t always look the same every year. Sometimes it’s financial support. Other times, it’s time, mentorship, skills-sharing, or opening doors where they didn’t exist before. All of it matters.
2025: A Year of Transition (and Continued Impact)
In 2025, our business underwent a major transition as we relocated operations from the U.S. to Sweden. Production and sales were paused for several months during this move, and as a result, we did not generate profit to distribute through monetary donations.
That said, our commitment to people and community did not pause.
During the 2025 Spring semester, we hosted two high school interns from Claremont in The Bronx, who were interested in design and creative work. They worked alongside us to learn about product design, materials, and small-business operations — gaining hands-on experience and mentorship in a field they were curious about.
We see this kind of direct investment — sharing knowledge, access, and opportunity — as a meaningful part of our promise.
As we re-establish production in Sweden, we’re excited to build on this work and continue supporting both financial contributions and community-based efforts in the years ahead.
Looking Ahead
As we move forward from Sweden, our goal remains the same:
to support initiatives that protect wild places, strengthen communities, and help more people feel welcome, capable, and represented in outdoor spaces.
If you have suggestions for organizations or community efforts we should support, we’d love to hear from you.
