Historia
Founded in 1987 by Jan Cameron and John Pawson, Kathmandu began in Melbourne before establishing its headquarters in New Zealand. It gained cultural prominence in the Southern Hemisphere as a primary provider of technical gear for hiking and travel. Historically, the brand contributed to the mainstreaming of outdoor apparel in urban environments. In 2019, it expanded its global footprint by acquiring the surf brand Rip Curl, solidifying its role in the broader outdoor industry.
