WHY CHOOSE A SHACKLETON
“I have marvelled often at the line that divides success from failure.”
– Sir Ernest Shackleton, South
The world is not short of passable outdoor apparel. Why choose a Shackleton?
DESIGNED IN LONDON
In our London HQ we design and engineer the best expedition-grade apparel we possibly can, down to the last detail. We finish each item with an inspirational quote from the Boss and the nine-pointed star found on his gravestone.
Each piece is of uncommonly high quality, and tested in the extremes it's designed for.
ENGINEERED FOR VERSATILITY
Everything we make is designed to attain a performance standard rather than hit a price point. If you’re paying more, it needs to do more. It has to be relied upon to meet the challenges it faces.
Atop a modern mountain or amid an urban freeze, this field-tested reassurance allows courage to thrive.
ENGINEERED FOR COMFORT
Comfort is equally critical, so we engineer it in. Next to the skin, as outside armour or in between, every active piece allows for max articulation, breathability and the moisture and friction-free motion that keeps you pushing on. Large protective pockets mean you carry fewer bags; long experience with hoods means ours work properly in serious conditions. We could go on.
MINIMISED IMPACT
Sir Ernest knew how precious this planet is. The same spirit informs our own environmental values: minimal impact, recycled where possible, ethical supply chains, meticulous sourcing. He also knew the value of endurance.
Our jackets are built to last, backed by an honest 3-year warranty.
SHACKLETON SPIRIT
Last but very much not least, Sir Ernest was something of a style icon. Dressed for a lecture or a trek across the ice, in pictures he looks every inch the part.
Our apparel follows his lead, and comes with the Shackleton spirit stitched-in.
