Arc'teryx

Arc'teryx is an outdoor clothing and sporting goods company founded in North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, in 1989. Originally named Rock Solid by founders Dave Lane and Jeremy Guard, the company's first line of products were heat laminated climbing harnesses. Later they used the same technology to make rucksacks and, in 1996, they adapted it for a new line of technical outdoor clothing which over the years has won many awards. Arc'teryx has since been purchased by the Adidas and more recently by Amer Sports. The name and logo of Arc'teryx refer to the Archaeopteryx Lithographica, the first reptile to take a bold evolutionary leap by developing feathers for flight, a symbol for Arc’teryx being evolution in action.
