Our Roots

Born from Frustration. Built for the Wild.

Thrillside started with a problem: too much overpriced gear that couldn’t survive a proper weekend in the backcountry.

Over four years of field-testing in the Idaho high country, we began building our own packs, pouches, and tools from scratch — in a garage lit by one bulb, fueled by black coffee and busted stitches.

Every design gets run through our version of R&D: trail miles, bushwhacks, and late-night reworks on a sewing table surrounded by fabric scraps and field notes. We’re not a factory. We’re not investors. We’re the ones who build it, break it, and build it better.

Thrillside isn’t just a name — it’s where the gear gets tested, and where it gets made. And we’re just getting started.
