Marmot PreCip Eco Hiking Trousers

Marmot is a classic American outdoor performance brand founded in 1974 by Eric Reynolds and Dave Huntley in Santa Cruz, California. Originally started as a club for mountain enthusiasts called the Marmot Club, the brand gained international fame for being one of the first to utilize Gore-Tex technology in its gear. The PreCip Eco Hiking Trousers represent the brand’s modern commitment to sustainability, utilizing recycled materials and PFC-free finishes.

Today, the brand is part of a larger corporate portfolio. While it maintains its technical design roots in the United States, its manufacturing is globalized, with most apparel items being produced in specialist factories across Vietnam and China. Since 2016, following several corporate mergers, the brand has been under the ultimate ownership of Newell Brands, a multi-national consumer goods conglomerate based in Atlanta, Georgia. This oversight allows Marmot to leverage large-scale logistics and distribution networks while remaining a top-tier name in the technical outdoor market.
