Highlander was founded in the 1980s when exploring the outdoors was seen as an expensive pursuit. We thought otherwise – that enjoying the challenges and beauty of the outdoors should be available to everyone.

Over the years, this ethos has been our North Star as we continually strive to create clothing and equipment that helps everyone to explore their world, their way. 35 years later, this ever-growing passion, and our commitment to producing gear that helps people look good, feel good, and stay safe, have helped Highlander become the brand that it is today.

We have sponsored expeditions that have inspired us to create the best gear we can, to better enable others to overcome their own huge challenges. In recent years, we have been lucky enough to collaborate with some incredibly inspiring people!

We kit-sponsored Mark Beaumont on his record-breaking cycle Around the World in 80 Days and partnered with a trio of brave adventurers who trekked solo and unassisted across the Gobi Desert.
