Change within a growing industry

HIGH-POTENTIAL MARKET

The outdoor gear market is booming, thanks to social media, adventure culture, and a renewed interest in fitness and nature.

Hiking and mountaineering are growing fast, but most gear is still overpriced, uncomfortable, or of inferior quality.

Brigand Bootmaker will fill that gap by offering high-quality, performance footwear at a fair price, with a fresh, design-forward identity.

Footwear Built for Real Movement

OUR FOOTWEAR. BUILT DIFFERENT.

Our footwear is made for natural movement and real performance. Key design features include:

  • Front-footed design - Comfortable enough for your toes to breathe. Tight enough to climb a mountain.
  • Durable, tested materials. (We don't cut corners)

Brigand boots are designed by mountaineers, not marketers, and it shows.

Treating out planet with respect

REAL ETHICS. NOT GREEN-WASHING.

We back up our environmental values with action:

  • 100% biodegradable packaging (with realistic exceptions only where needed)
  • No single-use plastics in our supply chain
  • We only work with manufacturers who meet ethical standards

And we’re not stopping there. We plan to host clean-up events, build conservation partnerships, and stay actively involved in protecting the outdoors we build for.

  • SCALABLE, GROUND-UP GROWTH.

    We’ve kept costs lean by doing everything in-house: Product development, fulfillment, customer support. All of it.

    As we grow, we’ll scale into warehousing, expand the product range, and target international distribution.

  • SOLVING A GENUINE PROBLEM

    Hikers are faced with an unnecessary dilemma choosing between comfort and function. Our "front-footed" design aims to solve this dilemma by incorporating both comfort and function.

    As seen in other industries, the returns on solving genuine problems are quite high, and we expect the same from ourselves.

  • DESIGNED BY MOUNTAINEERS. RUN BY ENTREPRENEURS.

    Brigand is co-founded by people who climb, hike, and lead trips into the mountains, not just sat behind a desk. That authenticity runs through every part of the brand, from how we design our gear to how we speak to our audience.

  • LONG-TERM VISION.

    As we grow, we’ll scale into warehousing, expand the product range, and target international distribution.

    We envision Brigand becoming a household name in accessible mountaineering gear, with multiple sub-brands and various product offerings under one ethical umbrella.
