Berghaus is a cornerstone of the British outdoor industry, founded in 1966 by climbers Peter Lockey and Gordon Davison. The brand name, which translates to 'mountain house' in German, was inspired by the owners' desire to bring high-performance mountaineering equipment to the UK market. Originally starting as an importer and retailer called LD Mountain Centre in Newcastle upon Tyne, the founders transitioned into manufacturing their own gear when they couldn't find products that met their technical standards.
Today, Berghaus is recognized globally for its high-quality technical apparel, footwear, and equipment designed for rough terrain and extreme weather. While the brand remains deeply rooted in its British heritage with headquarters still in North East England, the actual manufacturing of its technical footwear and apparel takes place in various specialized factories across Europe and Asia to maintain competitive scale and quality.
The brand is currently part of the Pentland Group, one of the world's leading brand management companies. Under Pentland's ownership, Berghaus has continued to innovate with technologies like Gore-Tex and its own proprietary materials, maintaining its position as a premium choice for adventurers and outdoor enthusiasts.
