Since 1965, Craghoppers has been helping explorers, hikers, and everyday adventurers take on the outdoors with confidence. Born from a group of British outdoor enthusiasts, Craghoppers set out to design clothing that could handle the unpredictable — wind, rain, sun, and everything in between. Six decades later, that same spirit of innovation still drives the brand, with each product designed to help you travel smarter, lighter, and further.

Craghoppers’ gear is all about practical performance, their clothing is made for people who live life outside. Every detail has a purpose, from cleverly placed security pockets and lightweight, quick-drying fabrics to sustainable materials and built-in UV protection. Their mission is simple: create gear that lets you focus on the journey, not the elements.

Doing Good, Globally

Craghoppers don't just make clothing for the outdoors — they make it with the outdoors in mind. Over 70% of their products now use recycled materials, from plastic bottles repurposed into technical fabrics to eco-friendly finishes that reduce water and chemical use. Their long-term goal is simple: design durable, repairable, and responsibly made gear that helps protect the very landscapes we love to explore.

They’re constantly innovating to reduce environmental impact — cutting waste, lowering emissions, and using bluesign® and Global Recycled Standard (GRS) approved materials wherever possible.

The Power of NosiLife

One of Craghoppers’ most innovative technologies is NosiLife, a true game-changer for anyone adventuring in insect-prone environments. Woven directly into the fabric, NosiLife provides permanent insect protection that lasts the lifetime of the garment, no sprays, no reapplications, no fuss. It’s lightweight, breathable, and ideal for warm-weather adventures where staying cool and bite-free can make all the difference.
