Merrell

Since 1981, Merrell has been providing outdoor enthusiasts with quality performance footwear for their active outdoor and aftersport pursuits. Merrell believes in encouraging and equipping everyone to get outside. It doesn't need to be complicated-outside is where you find it, from shoreline to treeline, from urban landscape to remote wilderness.

Designed to flow seamlessly between the realms of tech and style, Merrell Apparel will debut in July 2007 and go beyond the boundaries of outdoor and activates and sports. Merrell's vision is to provide products for living outside that reflect the Brand's global sense of style, color, and detail.

Headsweats

Headsweats Perspiration Technology Headwear ® was founded in the fall of 1999 by shoe industry veteran and obsessed cyclist, Alan Romick. Frustrated by the perils of heavy sweat blindness, migrating sunscreen, and odd sunburn pattern on his head through his helmet, he set out to develop headgear that worked. Encouraged by the constant feedback within the local cycling community, he took the best attributes of what was available and improved on them. Starting with one product -- The Classic -- available at first in just four colors, Alan’s products quietly became elite athlete’s secret weapon around the world, eventually expanding to over 17 different products available in over 140 different colors and styles.
