Halti Outdoor Gear

Founded in 1976 by Juhani Hyökyvaara, Halti is a premium Finnish outdoor brand that takes its name from Finland's highest peak, Halti-tunturi. The brand was established with the goal of bringing more people into nature by providing equipment that could withstand the demanding Nordic climate. Over decades, it has become synonymous with Finnish athletic excellence, famously serving as the official gear provider for the Finnish national ski teams and various Olympic delegates.

While the design, research, and technical development remain rooted in Finland, Halti’s manufacturing is primarily outsourced to specialized factories in Asia to maintain competitive pricing and scale. The brand is a leader in sustainability, frequently partnering with material innovators like Spinnova to create circular textile solutions. Today, the brand remains a major player in the European snow sports and outdoor market, owned by the Finnish company Halti Oy with backing from private equity investors.
