Royal Robbins History
From Yosemite Walls to Global Adventure
THE STORY OF ROYAL ROBBINS
Royal Robbins was founded in 1968 by climbers Royal and Liz Robbins, two pioneers of American climbing who helped shape modern rock climbing in Yosemite.
Unable to find clothing that suited their needs on big wall climbs and outdoor adventures, they began designing practical apparel built for durability and comfort in the outdoors.
Over the decades, the brand expanded beyond climbing to create versatile outdoor clothing suitable for hiking, travel and everyday exploration.
Today Royal Robbins continues to blend climbing heritage with modern fabrics and responsible manufacturing.
