Historia
Founded in 1938 as the Columbia Hat Company by Paul Lamfrom, the firm transitioned into apparel under Gert Boyle in 1970. It gained significance through technical developments like the Interchange System, which introduced modular layering. Historically, the brand bridged the gap between specialized mountaineering equipment and mass-market outerwear. In recent decades, its vintage silhouettes and technical designs have been integrated into urban fashion and the gorpcore movement.
