About the brand ❤️
Karrimor is a historic British outdoor and adventure-equipment brand established in 1946. Originating in Lancashire, the company first made cycle bags and later pioneered lightweight backpacks and mountaineering gear. Despite its strong legacy and “Made in Britain” heyday, the original business fell into financial distress and entered receivership in 2004, with the brand name then acquired by Frasers Group. Today Karrimor continues as a value-oriented outdoor brand under new ownership, offering hiking boots, backpacks, clothing and accessories globally — though many outdoor enthusiasts regard its current incarnation as very different from the original high-performance era.
