Lowe Alpine's Logo

Lowe Alpine is an outdoor equipment manufacturer and supplier that originated in Colorado and is now an international company. The company is currently owned by Equip Outdoor Technologies Holdings Ltd.

The brand was created by climber Greg Lowe in 1967, brother and climbing partner of noted first ascensionist and early advocate of Alpine style climbing Jeff Lowe. He created an innovative internal framed backpack. Later Lowe Alpine innovations[citation needed] include Triplepoint Ceramic waterproof and breathable fabric and Advanced Paralux System (APS) back systems and more recently their TFX back system.
