About us
At the heart of our company is family — and a lifelong love of adventure. We’re Maura and Bobby Marko, parents to two curious kids (now 9 and 12) and lifelong explorers who believe that the best memories are made outside, together. Ever since meeting in 2007 and sharing big outdoor experiences from backpacking in Europe to canoeing the Boundary Waters, the outdoors has shaped how we live, learn, and play as a family.
That spirit of exploration — and a drive to make everyday adventures better — inspired us to create quality products that solve real problems for travelers, van-lifers, and outdoor lovers like us. Every product is designed with care, built to last, and engineered to make your journeys cleaner, simpler, and more enjoyable. We handcraft what we can right here in Minnesota, and stand behind it with the same values that guide our family: practicality, curiosity, and a deep respect for the world we love to explore together.
We build gear we use — so you can focus on the adventure ahead.
