On our climbs, we wear gear from KAEMP 8848 – fairly produced in Kathmandu, developed with Sherpas and mountain athletes, built to withstand extreme conditions.
Those who know what really matters on the mountain in the Himalaya also build the best gear for it.
KAEMP 8848 isn't just another outdoor brand – the company itself is from Nepal, develops its gear in Kathmandu, and has it made there too. No outsourcing, no anonymous supply chain: the people sewing our jackets know the Himalaya firsthand.
For us, as a father-son team aiming to climb all 82 four-thousanders in the Alps, that's exactly what matters: gear that doesn't give up in wind, cold, and wet – developed with Sherpas and mountain athletes, not at a desk.
Fairly produced, repairable instead of disposable, and technically top-notch – exactly the combination we want to wear on our mountain climbs.
Windproof warmth up front, breathable stretch at the back – the versatile softshell for everything from spring trails to ski touring.
