About RevolutionRace

We’re revolutionizing the outdoor industry.

At RevolutionRace, we believe in having fun in nature. With colorful, high-quality outdoor clothing, we challenge the somewhat dull, conservative outdoor industry - helping the customers express their true selves in the outdoors. Our number one priority is to satisfy our customers’ needs and give them an experience beyond expectations, which we do by never, ever sacrificing quality.

In 2014, RevolutionRace started to fill the gap of high-quality outdoor clothing at a reasonable price. With cheerful colors that put a smile on everyone’s face!

By cutting out all middlemen, we can offer the same awesome quality (or even better) as our competitors but at a much more fair price. It also enables us to meet our customer’s needs and get new or improved products to market faster.

Watching customers worldwide enjoying the great outdoors in our gear inspires us to work harder every day. Our products are made by hikers, for hikers - everyday people like ourselves who love nature.
