RUX Origins: Our Design Story

RUX Origins: Our Design Story

Posted by Joseph Schwartz on

While RUX is a young company, our roots of origin run deep. Our story starts on youthful trips to the mountains, rivers and beyond. Learning from the more experienced, revelling in being OUT THERE, and soaking in the raw sensations of being exposed to those wild places.

RUX may have just launched one year ago, but the RUX approach to solving problems originated in those formative years. The first trip into the big mountains, the gear explosions at base camp, lashing packs to burros, the wide-eyed craziness of traveling into lesser known corners of the globe. These experiences inform our approach to building innovative, creative solutions for managing your gear, on whatever the adventure.
