HIGH HOPES

Shirts, pants, jackets, tools, and a full-length manifesto are all being built from the ground up for explorers and makers.

We’re learning, testing, breaking, and rebuilding to make things worth owning. We carefully design our products to be tough, honest, and human, while remaining accessible at prices the people who use them the hardest can justify. We fight to strike an honest balance between past, present, and future, innovating where real improvement can be made and looking to tradition where strong solutions already exist. We design to create things that work practically, spiritually, and aesthetically.

Creation that aims to uphold ideals of freedom, truth, and integrity. A vision of a world filled with better objects that respect their users, humanity, and the world.

We’ve been building, refining, and pushing for the best possible materials for years, and we are getting very close to launching our products.

PANTS & JACKET
Current progress: The designs are essentially finished. We are now working to finalize the last details and move into production.

SHIRTS
Current progress: Over ten graphics have been completed. We are currently working to screen print them in a way that honors their original form as closely as possible.

TOOLS
Current progress: Tools are still in the concept stage, but this is something we are fully committed to bringing into reality. We are working toward making knives and tough, single-piece tools built for exploring. We are also working to set up a forge so I can begin producing them. The commitment is full. The vision is set. This is just the earliest stage of creation.

MANIFESTO
You may buy our products, but what you are really buying is our manifesto. Our clothes, tools, and objects are its physical form. An uncompromising plan for better creation and a better world. Every product will carry it.

We plan to include a printed copy with every product.

Current progress: The latest draft contains everything, but it is long and tangled at over 100 pages. We are cutting it down into something sharp, direct, and uncompromising. Once that is done, we will work to get it printed at the best possible price so it can be included with every product.
