We Are Built on Protection and Preparedness

govorders@outdoorresearch.com

Protection is the foundation in which Outdoor Research has built our products, stories, and people for four decades. We wouldnโ€™t be able to do what we do without the unwavering support of our frontline workers, and so we honor them and the work theyโ€™re doing for the publicโ€™s health and safety.

We design and build protective equipment in three categories.

Award-winning technical apparel and accessories for all environments, backed by our Infinite Guaranteeยฎ.

Medical PPE

Certified Protection

Weโ€™ve been building protective equipment since 1981. Now more than ever, weโ€™re responding to the needs of the medical community by manufacturing personal protective equipment for essential workers.

Outdoor Research PPE is certified by the most rigorous health and safety standards, including FDA and NIOSH.

When the pandemic began, we asked ourselves how we could help. That simple question led to a transformation of an entire floor in our Seattle facility into a medical PPE production facility. We are establishing ourselves in the medical device space to serve healthcare personnel during and after this crisis.

Made in the USA

We operate out of two U.S. factories, one that shares our corporate headquarters in Seattle, and another in Los Angeles. Being steps away from our production floors allows us to create, test, improve, and distribute protective equipment with the greatest speed and efficiency. Because this gear is tested in the most extreme environments by our military partners, weโ€™re able to leverage the same materials, techniques, and products for the outdoors. Both our Seattle and L.A. factories produce technical apparel and PPE for adventurers, medical staff, armed forces, and everyone else who needs protection outside of their home.
