In Europe, Lafuma is synonymous with high-quality outdoor gear. Starting as a backpack manufacturer in the 1930s, Lafuma quickly expanded into a full-line outdoor company and is now Europe’s leading manufacturer of outdoor gear and apparel. Lafuma is no longer confined to the old country—the company expanded out of its playground in the French Alps and set up shop in Colorado. From the Rockies, Lafuma continues to be an innovator of lightweight, highly packable sleeping bags, multi-day and adventure race packs, trail running and hiking footwear, and top-of-the-line, premium camp chairs.
