Our Pledge to #Giveashit

2020 has been a tough year for brands both big and small. And though Appalachian Gear Company has struggled like everyone else, we have also recognized that planet is far more important than profit. Saving our public lands can't wait.

Here at Appalachian Gear Company, we’ve spent a lot of time criss-crossing the trails of the eastern US. That’s why we’re excited to partner with the Appalachian Trail Conservancy to sponsor a ridgerunner in 2021.  Ridgerunners are boots-on-the-ground educators that provide a critical service by not only maintaining the trails, facilities, and natural resources of the AT, but also by teaching hikers about the principles of Leave No Trace and responsible recreation.

We are honored to be a part of The Outdoor Evolution’s #GiveAShit campaign, and challenge all companies who rely on the outdoors for recreation, inspiration, or a bottom line to join us in giving back to the public lands we all hold so dear.
