Illumination Equipment

Illumination Equipment is a small maker of handmade packs for backcountry skiing, snowboarding, ski mountaineering, and alpine climbing. Based in the shadow of Mt. Hood, the brand draws on the founders’ experience as skiers, shaping its designs around lessons learned in the mountains. Its products are intended to support a range of backcountry pursuits, from high-alpine objectives to powder laps through the trees.

The Luminary series is presented as a versatile, go-to pack collection for nearly every type of backcountry outing. For more demanding missions, the Psychros is purpose-built for technical ski objectives, glacier travel, and multi-day expeditions, with an emphasis on efficient movement and low weight. Illumination Equipment’s website offers its packs for purchase, alongside sizing and fit guidance, technical information, and warranty details. Customers can also view a gallery and contact the company directly. The brand shares updates about new products and order windows through its newsletter, and international customers are invited to request a shipping quote by email.
