About Us
What do we stand for?
-
For the fun of it.
If you're not having fun, what's the point? Laugh. Play. Be curious. Get out there and enjoy yourselves.
-
Simple yet courageous.
Hiking is simple, but no one said it was easy. We choose to climb the tallest peaks and solve the hardest problems just for ourselves. You got this.
-
Excellence in Evolution.
Change is what got us here and it’s where we’re headed--embrace it. Our gear is built to last a lifetime, but it’s never finished. This is how we design, create, and sell only the best outdoor gear.
Hiking is Healthcare.
Our mission is to make the world healthier and happier by helping 100 million people hike 1000 ft of elevation gain every month. Ok ok, it doesn’t have to be hiking, just get out there and have fun, any moderately strenuous outdoor activity will do.
As part of our mission, we donate 5% of our profits to organizations dedicated to helping people get into nature who may find it more challenging to do so.

Our Story
Hi, my name is Spencer and I'm the founder of Gone. Growing up in rural New Hampshire, I spent most of my time having fun outdoors. Playing with sticks and rocks got me curious about nature, which led me down a path to science and engineering. I eventually meandered into medicine, working as a product leader and biomedical engineer. After bashing my head against the US healthcare system one too many times, I went for a long hike and realized that hiking is one of, if not the best, form of preventative medicine. I started gone to create the best outdoor gear and encourage as many people as possible get outside and have fun. Get gone.
