GoLite, with its humble origins in Boulder, is famous for its lightweight yet high performance and durable hiking equipment gear. Barry Elliot has been contributing to leading magazines, blogs for the past 5 years. He's also an accredited researcher on various subjects.
From backpacks, hiking and trailing shoes and boots, hydration packs, apparel, sleeping bags to tents, GoLite has everything under its umbrella of hiking equipment and hiking gear catering to both the genders of the population.
The company’s philosophy is to continuously innovate and provide athletes and outdoor enthusiasts with superior hiking equipment and gear that provide “maximum performance at minimum weight”. Undoubtedly, products like the “Cave” – silicon-impregnated nylon tarp that can house two people and just 1-1/2 pounds or the GoLite Quest pack – have been inspirations from the same philosophy. Hiking equipment like backpacks and sleeping bags are available in three lines – Venture, Ultra and Adrenaline – based on the requirements of the consumer. Each series has different sizes and for backpacks there is a quick help chart to decide which size or series is the best for the buyer based on the spine length and the estimated weight or load. GoLite apparel uses fabrics like Gore-Tex, Trinity and Alchemy that are known to be waterproof and breathable materials worldwide.
GoLite continuously strives to find and produce fabrics that have the best strength to weight ratio. To top it all, GoLite believes in going totally green by using environmentally preferred material. It is also aiming to be completely carbon neutral by the year 2010. Due to its innovative and world class hiking gear and hiking equipment, it should come as no surprise that GoLite is the winner of Backpacker Magazine’s Editors’ and Readers’ Choice Awards.
All in all, you may be an athlete, outdoor sports freak or just an amateur outdoor enthusiast but when it comes to buying the best hiking gear and hiking equipment, do not compromise or hesitate – just go for GoLite!
