Hillsound Wins Shelf Space with REI and FGL Sports

Hillsound said REI and FGL Sports Ltd., two of North America’s biggest outdoor specialty retailers, have begun selling its mini-crampons in select stores.

REI is bringing Hillsound’s original Trail Crampon into 17 of its store locations as well as selling them online. FGL Sports’ subsidiaries Atmosphere and Sports Experts stores will both carry all of Hillsound’s traction device products in their stores located in Alberta, British Columbia, Quebec, and Ontario.

 

“Hillsound’s universal appeal in a wide variety of outdoor and urban applications has become apparent in the demand for our products and the growth of our distribution,” said Hillsound Marketing Director, Jessica Greinke. 

 

“Our products serve everyone from ultra-runners and winter hikers to those living in urban areas looking for a safer way to walk their dog or go get the mail on snowy/icy days. We are excited to offer our lines to more people in more places, expanding Hillsound’s reach and increasing our community of brand loyalists.”

 

Based in Vancouver, British Columbia, Hillsound offers a range of highly-engineered winter traction devices for a variety of categories, from winter walking to light mountaineering. Hillsound also specializes in the design and manufacture of durable and comfortable gaiters.
