Kelty

In 1952, Dick Kelty, a carpenter, builder, and avid outdoorsman, started making backpacks for his friends in the Sierra Club for 24 bucks a pop. These 24-dollar Kelty packs revolutionized backpacking, implementing for the first time Kelty's ideas of a hipbelt and lighter aluminum frames. Soon, Kelty and his friends were exploring the Sierra Nevadas with fully loaded backpacks, no shoulder pain, going farther, longer, and happier into the wilderness than ever before.

Five years later, Dick Kelty quit his carpentry business to start an outdoor gear company. Staked out in an old garage, Mr. Kelty welded aluminum tubes into frames while his wife, Nena, cut, sewed, and fitted the pack bags. Today, Kelty gear promises the same dedication to innovation and getting outdoors that Dick Kelty had forty-eight years ago.

Kelty started as a company making it easier for friends to enjoy the wilderness, and that's what they still do. They just have a few more friends.
