OUTSPIRE

Verb; To inspire you to get outside. 

We're not businesswomen. We're not here to make money. We're not here to be known. ​Our purpose is to inspire a return to nature through connection, mindful consumption, and a culture of repair and reuse.

THE ADVENTURE DOESN'T END AT LANDING.

We empower explorers by diverting retired paraglider materials from landfills and crafting sustainable backpacks that fuel new adventures.

01

The Second Life Starts With You

Our journey begins with donations. We partner with outdoor enthusiasts, gear retailers, and even adventure outfitters to collect paragliders that have reached the end of their first life.

03

Rebirth and Reimagination

Here's where the magic happens! Our skilled artisans meticulously cut, sort, and transform the cleaned materials. We leverage the unique properties of each fabric to create durable and functional panels.

02

Cleanliness is next to adventure-ness

Each piece of donated gear undergoes a thorough cleaning and inspection. We meticulously remove dirt, dust, and any lingering traces of past adventures. This ensures your backpack is not only beautiful but also ready to conquer new peaks.

04

Final Touches

Each backpack receives a final inspection and undergoes meticulous finishing touches to deliver a product that's not only functional but also visually stunning.
