LAFUMA

A French outdoor lifestyle brand

Lafuma is a century-old outdoor brand from France, founded in 1930 by the three Lafuma brothers in Anneyron, a small town at the foot of the Alps. That mountain-born origin gave the brand its enduring spirit: an endless Alpine drive and a deep belief in living in harmony with nature. Over time, Lafuma built a distinctive identity by combining outdoor function with French lifestyle aesthetics, becoming a brand that moves naturally between travel and daily life, and between the city and the outdoors. Guided by the idea of “Share Your Nature”, it speaks to urban consumers who value quality, personal style, travel, and time in nature, encouraging them to step outside and enjoy a more relaxed, open-hearted way of living.

The brand has consistently pursued a balance of utility and style. It first built its name through professional mountaineering packs and camping equipment, earning credibility through close collaboration with explorers and alpine advisors. In the 1990s, the legendary SANGA jacket swept across Europe and became one of the brand’s defining icons. Lafuma’s products center on two core scenarios: HIKING, designed for trekking and mountain use with protective, high-performance materials such as CORDURA, GORE-TEX, and the brand’s own LYTX fabrics; and TRAVEL, focused on journeys and everyday mobility, with standout pieces like colorful shell jackets, printed outerwear, and fleeces that express a distinctly French outdoor aesthetic.

Beyond product, Lafuma brings its brand values to life through events, environmental efforts, and community-building. Activities like JOY HIKING and the Lafuma ORIGIN hiking series embody the brand’s never-ending Alpine spirit, while projects centered on ecological awareness, such as the Protect the Blue Planet exhibition and the Little Elephant Rainforest Ecology Exploration, highlight its commitment to environmental responsibility. Through activities like the “LA Let’s Go Play Club” and “One Mountain a Month”, the brand has strengthened its connection with users. Building on a century of heritage, Lafuma is redefining the relationship between modern people and nature, not as something to conquer, but something to live alongside, and is becoming a benchmark outdoor brand that balances technical credibility with lifestyle appeal.
