HOLDING OUR LINE

 

We love the outdoors and know the decisions we make today will impact our world tomorrow.

 

How we do business means the world to us. We weave respect and integrity into all of our business and design decisions, and we refuse to compromise when it comes to how we treat people and tread on the planet.


 

WE PRIORITIZE SUSTAINABILITY

Sustainability is a key part of the Ridge Merino promise to you. We strive to use all-natural, renewable and biodegradable fabric and materials whenever possible.

Most of our products are made mostly - or entirely - of Merino wool, a natural, renewable and biodegradable fiber produced from the Merino breed of sheep. The sheep eat grass, drink water and take in the sunshine - all essential ingredients to creating soft, comfortable Merino wool fibers. We only use wool from non-mulesed sheep and 100% of our wool is sustainably sourced from certified humane sheep farmers in Australia and New Zealand.


 

WE’RE A CERTIFIED CALIFORNIA GREEN BUSINESS

We were the first company in Mammoth Lakes, Calif. to achieve Green Business Certification from the California Green Business Network. To receive this certification, businesses must prove that they use sustainable and environmentally-friendly business practices. We’re proud to officially have Ridge held to this higher standard, and it was a natural next step for our company.


 

WE USE ECO-FRIENDLY MATERIALS

Ridge Merino strives to use all-natural, renewable and/or biodegradable fabric and materials whenever possible. We are constantly on the lookout for new, innovative fabrics and experimenting with creative applications. We work closely with our athletes, brand ambassadors and customers to develop technical performance pieces as well as everyday essentials that perform as well in daily life as they do in the wildest outdoor conditions.
