Exped

Everything Exped do is part of their quest to design and build the highest-quality outdoor gear. It has been said that one of the key traits of the Swiss (Exped is based in Zurich, Switzerland) is their tendency to tinker to perfection. This is true for Exped and represents the critical element of their product-driven company. No detail is too small to be tinkered with and improved -- and then improved again. They are users of their own gear and certainly our most critical testers. In their view, there is no point at which a product is actually perfect -- everything can be improved with a little more tinkering.
