Lowe Alpine - World-Class Carry Systems Since
1967
The Lowe Alpine brand was born from the hearts
and minds of one of the greatest climbing families on earth.
A Brief History
Greg, Mike and Jeff Lowe were raised on the move. By their
twenties, the Lowe brothers were the leading climbers of
their generation, but they hit a wall: the external
backpacks available at the time were too heavy and unstable
to progress further in the mountains. They realised they
needed a new kind of pack that could carry gear more
securely, whilst letting them move more freely on demanding
terrain.
In 1967, Greg Lowe designed, tested and launched the
Expedition pack from Lowe Alpine Systems, a revolutionary
backpack that gave climbers more freedom of movement in the
mountains. It featured an innovative internal frame,
compression straps and other never before seen features.
This pack changed the outdoor industry forever, becoming the
blueprint from which all modern, technical backpacks are
derived.
Now
Today their insatiable desire for progress, for building
better packs that help people to push the boundaries of what
is possible are reflected in Lowe Alpine's range of
rucksacks. The carry systems are designed to move with you;
precise, considered ergonomics inform fit and unique
features that promote freedom of movement are built into
their designs to further improve the carry and ensure you
can rely on your Lowe Alpine pack trip after trip, year
after year.
