Our current goal is to be ready by 2028 to climb Manaslu in gear only made by us. That is what we are working toward every single day. We are building it piece by piece. Some categories, especially b3 boots and tents, cannot be rushed. They have to be right.

Yes. That has always been the goal. We are working toward building a complete mountain system ourselves, not just parts of it. Every climb shows us what is missing, what needs improvement and what is already strong enough. We are pushing hard to make that happen by 2028, not someday far in the future.

We grew up watching an outdoor industry that protected old formulas for too long. That mindset is why dangerous chemicals like PFAS stayed normal in outdoor products. Manaslu challenges every material, every construction, and every approach to making mountaineering equipment. We push PFAS-free shells, natural materials, and unconventional ideas shaped by real-world mountain use. We are here to move mountain gear forward and let the best idea win.

The Manaslu Summit Club is for climbers, alpinists and mountaineers who carry this movement into the mountains. Members submit their summit moments with the Summit Flag and unlock exclusive events and rare project pieces that never release publicly.

PFAS are called forever chemicals for a reason: they can persist for thousands of years. For decades, the outdoor industry accepted them as the price of performance. We do not. You buy a shell to stay safe in the mountains, not to trade one risk for another. A PFAS-free shell matters because real mountain performance should not come with unnecessary long-term harm to your health or the environment.
