Royal Robbins S24
Media Kit
Royal Robbins was one of the best climbers who ever lived.
The company he and his wife Liz started was conceived on top of Half Dome and founded at Camp 4 in the Yosemite Valley in 1968. Liz and Royal didn’t climb mountains just to conquer them. They climbed because it was good for the soul. And the clothes they made were for people like them. People who lived in basecamps all over the world so they could climb, hike, trek, ride, travel, and then talk about it all night around the fire.
The clothes Royal Robbins makes today still contain cotton, hemp, wool, and recycled fibers and they’re still found at basecamps, crammed into packs and abused all day before they’re slept in and worn again.
Because every great adventure starts and ends in a basecamp somewhere.
And that’s where you’ll find Royal Robbins clothes.
Conceived on Half Dome. Born in Basecamp.

What’s New Spring ‘24
basecamp collection
Inspired by decades of product innovation found in Royal catalog archives, the Basecamp Collection incorporates lower-impact fabrics already utilized in their lines. These imaginative designs reintroduce time-tested and classic features in delightful, forward-facing styles. Like the original products born in Yosemite’s Camp 4, these styles are built for years of adventure. Building clothes that last is a cornerstone of reducing impact on the planet.
DESERT PUCKER 25th anniversary
S24 marks the 25th anniversary of our coolest adventure shirt: The Desert Pucker. A long-time choice for those with adventurous souls, the Desert Pucker is made with a blend of carbon-zero TENCEL Modal fibers, is certified as CarbonNeutral by Natural Capital Partners, and some even incorporate recycled polyester. They look and feel great, never feel hot, and are less impactful on the planet. Since its debut, more than one million Desert Puckers have been on the backs of adventurers by day and wadded up into a pillow by night.
Spotless collection: Adventure, Rinse, Repeat
The best-selling women’s Spotless Collection just keeps getting better with lightweight, quick dry, comfortable styles that aren’t afraid to play outside. This stretch fabric is equipped with HeiQ Stain Away technology, which allows easier stain removal with quick spot cleaning and normal laundering, and all styles are blue-sign® approved. The primary fiber in these styles is recycled polyester, and all styles are wrinkle-resistant, anti-static, and provide four-way stretch. There’s a reason the Spotless Collection is home to the industry’s leading adventure dress.
