Outdoor Trade Show (OTS)

04/06/2026

Our three morning social runs proved to be great ways for colleagues to start their OTS days. Thanks to Ronhill and Topo Athletic LLC for supporting and leading the runs. Thursday’s runners enjoyed a tour of some famous Liverpool landmarks, and some of them took the opportunity to check what brand of footwear the Beatles have chosen! A post-run coffee, pastry and chat rounded off the perfect pre-show warm up.

prAna / Asolo – Stand 367

In 1992, prAna set out on a journey to make sustainable and stylish fashion for those who live active lifestyles. And from those days of assembling each piece by hand in their garage, using fruit crates to transport products, and cutting hang tags from repurposed paper, we’ve come a long way. But throughout it all, our vision, values, and culture have held strong—still rooted back to that small garage in Carlsbad, California, following our mission to make clothing with a higher purpose.

ASOLO – In the new EVOLUTION line of fast packing shoes Asolo have used their decades of footwear design experience to engineer footwear that maximises speed and minimises effort, without ever compromising on safety or comfort. Ultralight weight with aggressive grip, ESS forefoot plate support and Goretex waterproof membrane, modern style and colourways …. Outdoor footwear has evolved.

Kavu – Stand 354

KAVU stands for Klear Above Visibility Unlimited. That’s an old aviation term used to describe those perfect days when there’s not a cloud in the sky and the view stretches right out to the horizon.

More than just a catchy name, it’s an ethos that sums up everything we do, and since 1993 we’ve been dedicated to making fun and functional outdoor clothing and gear that helps you get out there and have as many KAVU days as possible, whether that means a hike in the wilderness or a picnic in the park.
