Read This Before Buying Your Next Alpine Design Product

By David Torkee Lieu


- Don't get mixed up

Before I talk about Alpine design products, I would like to make sure that all of us are clear on what we're talking about, since there was another company with the name Alpine Designs (with an "S"). It was another company that has been independently owned back into the 60's, and has absolutely nothing to do with the company Alpine design, which is a label privately owned by Sports Authority. This clothing brand is usually intended for people who adventure into the great outdoors often. They create apparel for activities including hiking and backpacking trips. In this posting we will only be discussing those products manufactured by Alpine design of Sports Authority.

- Clothing design

Alpine Design produces clothing for both males and females. Their products are directly geared towards outdoor activities such as hiking or backpacking. Alpine Design is also very commonly known as a "budget brand." That is, it manufactures products for the outdoors man on a budget. I have owned two Alpine Design products so far, a pair of slippers and an Alpine Design hiker tent backpack. The slippers were fairly made and lasted me about 2 months before the sole started to tear out. It only got worse from there, as the sole tore more and more as I wore it. The backpack however, Is a product I still use to this day. It's lasted me a good five years camping trips so far. Their jackets are also well designed. They are made from 100% polyester and provide a decent protection from the elements.

- Product highlights

Though they're considered a budget brand, they certainly have their own strengths in superior product design. In my opinion, their backpacks have always held true. From their various varieties of backpacks, they are constructed with the outdoors-man in mind. The featured Alpine design ruck sack backpack features padded shoulder straps for elevated comfort while on long hikes. It also includes a main compartment with hydration sleeve for a fast and convenient use of your water. This backpack is on the lighter side when it comes to hiking backpacks, and I'll be putting it to the real test and take it on a backpacking trip with me. The backpack isn't really deigned to hold several weeks worth of things for you, but you might be able to carry a weeks worth of essentials. Either way, this is this next Alpine Design product on my list.

- Closing thoughts

Overall, Alpine design delivers the things they claim within their advertisements. Their budget material brand products serve their purpose for the time frame that they will be taken care of. Some products (like items of clothing) might last longer than others because of their material design. Either way, if you're heading into the great outdoors and do not have too much to spend on gear, Alpine design could be just the solution to suit your needs.
