Founded in 2002 in Portland, Oregon, NEMO Equipment creates high-performance tents, sleeping systems, and shelters designed for real-world adventures. Combining thoughtful design with innovative technologies, NEMO makes outdoor gear that keeps you comfortable, safe, and connected to the environment—whether you’re backpacking, climbing, or exploring remote wilderness.

Sustainable Materials: NEMO is actively increasing the use of recycled fabrics, responsibly sourced materials, and water-efficient production methods in their tents and sleeping systems.

Durability First: Every product is engineered to last, reducing the environmental impact of frequent replacements.

Repair and Reuse: NEMO provides spare parts, repair services, and care guides to extend gear life, keeping equipment out of landfill.

Packaging & Waste Reduction: NEMO continuously refines packaging and production processes to minimise waste and maximise efficiency.

Fair and Safe Manufacturing: NEMO works with suppliers and factories that adhere to strict labor and ethical standards, with a focus on safe working conditions and fair practices.

Supporting Outdoor Communities: Through partnerships and initiatives, NEMO contributes to conservation projects, outdoor education, and advocacy for sustainable outdoor recreation.

Design for Experience: NEMO collaborates closely with the adventure community to create gear that meets real needs, encouraging people to explore responsibly.

At Outside Sports, we choose NEMO because their gear blends innovative design with a strong commitment to sustainability and community. Lightweight, durable, and thoughtfully made, NEMO products let adventurers focus on the experience—while respecting the places they explore.
