ACCESSORIES

to the adventure

Freestone Equipment was founded to bring great ideas to life. We believe any adventure is more than the challenge of a particular climb, or river or ski descent. It is the nuances – the subtle differences in approach, technique and mindset which transforms the activity into a practice. And from a practice, it becomes a lifestyle – a deeper, richer experience, where a sense of purpose and freedom is found in the moment.

Freestone Equipment builds products that look at the nuances. Our products are designed to add intention and purpose to your adventure lifestyle, which ultimately makes your experience richer.

PETE HILL

Freestone CEO, Founder

For a very long time Pete has been losing and finding his way through the high and wild places of the world on foot, bikes, skis and boats. That same drive to see over the horizon to the next best place has fueled his design career. Curiosity and thoughtful process has turned energy into profitable products for leading brands including, The North Face, Arc’teryx, Cascade Designs, Mountain Equipment Co-op, Lowepro, Chrome Industries and many more.

His passion for design is matched with a drive for  turning consumer insights into outstanding products, delivered on time and on budget.

He has a unique breadth of experience in the effective planning and management of products through his work with wholesale, direct source retailers, small start-ups, and as a freelance designer.
