As passionate outdoor enthusiasts, we know how important it is to have the right gear for our adventures. For over 30 years, Alpin Loacker has stood for high-quality, innovative products that make our experiences in nature even more intense. In this blog post, we’d like to show you why Alpin Loacker is the right choice for your next outdoor tour.

The story of Alpin Loacker

Alpin Loacker was founded in 1993 by a group of passionate mountaineers and hikers. Their goal was to develop outdoor equipment that meets the high demands of mountain activities. Starting with the production of merino underwear, the range has steadily expanded over the years and now includes a wide variety of outdoor products.

To this day, Alpin Loacker is an owner-managed family business with its roots in the Alps. A close connection to nature and an understanding of the needs of outdoor enthusiasts shape the company’s philosophy. With a spirit of innovation and a commitment to quality, Alpin Loacker develops products that support adventurers in every situation.

Merino clothing: a special feature of Alpin Loacker

A hallmark of Alpin Loacker is the use of merino wool in many of their products. Merino wool is known for its outstanding thermoregulating properties and high wearing comfort. It is breathable, moisture-regulating and antibacterial – perfect for use in the great outdoors.

Our merino underwear keeps your body pleasantly tempered during activities and quickly wicks moisture away. This means you stay dry even during strenuous adventures and can fully focus on your experience. Our merino T-shirts are also impressive in their versatility: they work perfectly as a base or mid layer and are particularly gentle on the skin thanks to their natural fibers.

The product range from Alpin Loacker

In addition to our high-quality merino clothing, Alpin Loacker offers a wide range of other products that make life easier for outdoor enthusiasts:

Carbon trekking poles

Our lightweight yet sturdy carbon trekking poles support you reliably on any terrain. Thanks to their telescopic function, they can be stowed away to save space and are always ready for use.

Foldable hiking poles

For particularly space-saving transport, we also offer foldable trekking poles. They can be folded up in just a few simple steps, making them ideal for travel or for carrying in your backpack.

Lightweight down sleeping bags

Our high-quality down sleeping bags impress with their small pack size and low weight without compromising on warmth. This means you always have a comfortable and warm place to sleep, even on multi-day tours.

Lightweight sleeping mats

For a restful sleep in nature, we offer lightweight yet comfortable sleeping pads. They reliably insulate against ground cold and ensure a good night’s rest.
