TURNING CLOTHING INTO GEAR
We use advanced design, technology and fabrics to create gear systems that enhance the experience of the hunter. We believe extraordinary impacts can be made not only by large organizations but also by grassroots efforts led by passionate individuals. SITKA Ecosystem Grants fund proposed projects that improve the state and function of an ecosystem.
While SITKA Gear is built to be tough, it is not invincible. It will be put to the test, encountering tree limbs, barbed wire, rocks, and other conditions that may harm or damage the gear. We will try to repair damage caused by normal wear and tear or accidents, such as tears or punctures, at a reasonable cost. We will only begin the repair after you have approved the cost.
SITKA Gear History
Founded in 2005, SITKA® Gear was an idea spawned by necessity. Like many stories, this one started out as an epic journey that culminated with a clear vision. After 3000 vertical feet in the dark, with intermittent snow flurries and driving sleet, the morning climb ended behind a gnarled White Bark Pine to get some reprieve from the elements and a little food in the bellies. Cold and wet with sweat from that climb, it was more than obvious that discomfort like this was unnecessary. So, on that September morning, at timberline, surrounded by bugling bulls, the vision that became Sitka was realized.
Our roots are in the mountains, but our solutions range wide.
Drawing on strong backgrounds in the climbing, mountaineering, and general head strong assaults of the backcountry, expertise and experience were focused on bridging the gaps that existed between these endeavors. Sitka's driving goal is to not only bridge the technology gaps that existed from a fabric, construction, and product form perspective, but to fully immerse ourselves in driving new technologies and solutions for the modern outdoorsman.
We could say that we simply make the best high-performance system of hunting clothes on the market, but it's more than just quality; it's a philosophy: Turning Clothing Into Gear!
