Columbia

Columbia Sportswear was born and raised in Portland, Oregon, and has been creating equipment for over 70 years, so that people in the Pacific Northwest can finally enjoy the outdoors. Our President, Gert Boyle, has been at the helm for over 40 years. Her "tough mum" side helped Columbia become the international sports equipment brand as we know it today. Its strength is the creation of practical clothes and shoes that keep you WARM, DRY and FRESH, and PROTECT you in all situations. Our unique heritage from the Pacific Northwest and the Boyle family's irreverence are what sets us apart from our competitors.
