Hyperlite Mountain Gear

摘要

The core of the backstory for Hyperlite Mountain Gear is not unlike that of many other business launches: dissatisfaction. Founder Mike St. Pierre couldn't find the type of good, durable, lightweight, design-driven gear for his outdoor pursuits that he wanted, so he decided to make it himself. He schooled himself in fabrics, technologies and production processes, and then started building the exact minimalist gear he needed. In the eight years since, with the help of a global team of adventurer ambassadors, the company has continued to refine its gear to help users increase their speed, distance and efficiency by achieving an ideal balance of strength, weight and performance in its products - and demand has continued to grow, says director of operations John Schafer.
