Sitka launched in 2005 with a burning mission to not only produce top hunting gear but to also demand the results needed with that gear that top outdoorsmen expect when they go afield.

Eight years later, and after much sweat and pounding and exacting refinement, they’re still not satisfied. From an early-season jacket to a backpack that withstands the harshest things Ma Nature throws at it and comes back for more, Sitka’s ready to take it on and beg for more.
