Ruffwear, the brand that started with one waterproof, collapsible dog bowl and sparked the outdoor adventure dog category, is turning 175 in dog years this month. Since August 1994, the company has focused on customer needs to deliver performance dog gear for canine explorers, from apparel to packs to leashes and collars and everything in between. Launching its Fall 2019 product line today, Ruffwear continues to evolve and grow its product offerings, learning from its years of experience, designing from the dog’s perspective.
The Road Less Traveled
The road less traveled can oftentimes mean leaning into the discomfort of uncertainty. Blazing a new trail rather than following a pre-marked trail. Exposure to vulnerability and the unease that comes with putting yourself out there. For 25 years, Ruffwear has embraced that feeling of being on the edge and knows many of its adventure-seeking customers have too.
“As we trek into our 25th year,” said Patrick Kruse, Ruffwear Founder and Director of R&D, “I am reminded how our classics stand the test of time with a foundational fit and performance that Ruffwear is known for. Our updated travel pieces like the Haul Bag™, Kibble Kaddie™, and Mt. Bachelor Pad™ continue to allow for amazing adventures with new features and materials to elevate the user’s experience. The new Climate Changer™ Pullover joins the apparel line, pushing our designs and setting new standards for us as a brand. As always, we lean on our gear to provide canines a level of comfort while we explore together, expanding our boundaries and connecting with our community.”
