Long before performance apparel existed, one woman climbed these mountains wearing wool, determination, and little else.
In 1808, Marie Paradis became the first woman to summit Mont Blanc.
Not because she set out to make history.
She climbed to build a better life.
Over three demanding days she crossed glaciers, rock, and snow equipped with a long wool dress, leather shoes and sheer determination.
Her courage continues to inspire ours.
Today, every piece in the Marie Paradis Collection honors that same spirit of perseverance.
Marie climbed in wool because it was all she had.
We chose Merino because it's still one of nature's greatest performance fibers.

Moisture-managing.
Odor resistant.

The same fiber.
Reimagined for today's adventure.
The Marie Paradis Collection wasn't tested in a laboratory.
It was tested above Chamonix.
A team of women explored the alpine terrain surrounding Tête de Bellachat beneath the shadow of Mont Blanc—the same landscape that shaped Marie's remarkable ascent more than 200 years ago.
A quiet confidence.
Not every summit is loud.
Sometimes strength looks like patience.
Consistency.
