Columbia Sportswear is an international outdoor brand that has been producing innovative outdoor products and technologies since 1938. Based in Portland, Oregon, our clothing, footwear, and accessories reflect the spirit and heritage of the Pacific Northwest. We are proud to celebrate 80 years of being in nature with you.

Our brand was founded by the resilient Gert Boyle, whose parents escaped Nazi Germany and established a small hat manufacturing company in Portland. Through perseverance and determination, the business transitioned from Gert's father to her husband Neal, and eventually to Gert herself. Gert's legacy of resilience and high standards continues to inspire our brand today.

At Columbia, we share your passion for the outdoors. While our products are available worldwide, our headquarters in the Pacific Northwest allows us to fully embrace the lush forests, snowy mountains, rugged coastlines, and vast open spaces that serve as our playground. We love hiking, fishing, hunting, camping, climbing, snowboarding, surfing, golfing, running, and simply enjoying the fresh air.
