Designed from extensive customer research – tracking both macro-trends like urbanization and micro-insights like the campfire experience – the collection of gear serves the many young people who view the outdoors as something that starts at their front door, is part of everyday life and is best experienced with friends and family.
Combining style and function for grab-and-go spontaneity, Evrgrn gear helps this always outdoors consumer go from the city park to the campsite to the concert, integrating well into the socially connected lifestyle of this generation.
In the spirit of REI, founded in 1938 by young friends who loved the outdoors, Evrgrn gear is made with durable materials and quality craftsmanship that is built to last outdoors.
