RIVERTON, Wyo. (February 25, 2026) – Since 1997, Kifaru’s reputation has been rooted in the creation of gear trusted for the most challenging backcountry environments. This March, the historic brand takes its next bold step forward with the launch of its first complete hunting apparel system, extending the same design philosophy, durability and purpose-driven approach that has defined Kifaru from the start.
Designed from the ground up with functionality at its core, this system was built to meet the same performance standards long expected of its packs and essential gear. Every piece reflects a dedicated approach to materials, fit and construction, prioritizing durability, mobility and real-world usability over trend-driven design.
“A true hunting apparel system was a natural extension of what we have already built here at Kifaru,” said Aris Sergakis, Apparel Design Director at Kifaru. “This system is a purpose-driven solution for the tough environments and unpredictable scenarios outdoor enthusiasts encounter. Every piece was designed to help hunters meet those challenges head on.”
