Originated at Half Dome. Born at base camp.
Royal Robbins was one of the best climbers ever. He and his wife were well-known in the Sierra Nevada climbing circles in the 1960s. They were part of a group of climbers who developed the term “clean climbing,” aiming to leave minimal traces on rock faces.
Royal climbed and paddled not only in America but worldwide, always returning to Yosemite Valley.
Royal Robbins manufactures durable, classic outdoor clothing. The garments function well thanks to carefully chosen materials and thorough product development. Royal Robbins apparel is made for those spending time at base camps around the world, enabling them to climb, hike, camp, ride, travel, and gather around a campfire to talk about their adventures.
The nature-inspired color palette is timeless and works at home, on trails, and when traveling. The products are made responsibly, avoiding harmful chemicals and using eco-friendly fibers (cotton, hemp, wool, and recycled fibers). The production process minimizes waste, chemicals, water use, and greenhouse gas emissions. The company collaborates with organizations to protect people and nature.
The Royal Robbins logo combines the redwood tree and the emblem of the 2,650-mile-long Pacific Crest Trail.
Every great adventure starts and ends at a base camp.
