“At REI, we believe that an outdoor life is a life well lived, no matter where you are. evrgrn delivers on REI’s track record of quality and performance with thoughtfully designed and versatile gear so our members can focus on what matters most – having fun outside with friends,” said Nasahn Sheppard, divisional vice president of Product Design, REI Private Brands.
REI recognizes that the current generation, like generations before, is redefining itself in the outdoors. Designed from extensive customer research – tracking both macro-trends like urbanization and micro-insights like the campfire experience – the collection of gear serves the many young people who view the outdoors as something that starts at their front door, is part of everyday life and is best experienced with friends and family. Combining style and function to increase versatility, evrgrn gear goes from the city park to the campsite to the concert, integrating seamlessly into the socially connected lifestyle of this generation
