About Snowgum
Snowgum began designing and producing outdoor clothing and equipment in 1974.
For over 34 years our gear has been the essential traveller's companion -
from the Alps of the Himalaya to the Deserts of Somalia, across the Outback, up the Amazon and down the Nile - visiting every corner of the planet. As they travelled, our products evolved.
Today, you're as likely to see our labels on Sydney Harbour daytrippers, London Tube commuters
or visitors enjoying the Piazzas of Rome as on serious trekkers in Nepal or Machu Picchu - Our range of Lifestyle Climate Control Clothing is constantly growing to meet the demands of active lifestyles everywhere.
Why the name "Snowgum"?
We're often asked where the business name originated.
"Rugged, beautiful and highly adaptable, the native Snowgum (Eucalyptus pauciflora) thrives in Australia's climatic extremes - from windswept frozen alpine Winter to the drought and scorching heat of summer..."
Looking at the botanical description, the link between the hardy native tree and the growing business seemed obvious.
Today the name is more relevant than ever, as Snowgum pushes into new areas, adapting to emerging markets with its growing range of Climate Control Clothing.
