Simond
CAPTAIN WILD x SIMOND
We were lucky enough to be invited by the Simond teams to their home in Chamonix to discover their world, their history and the design processes behind their products.
Following the success of Simond's first experiences in the Pyrenees (quite a feat for a bi-centenary brand from Chamonix!), we're moving beyond the famous icefalls of the Gavarnie cirque to explore verticality from every angle.
Ice, rock, from the boulder to the long route, hang on, we'll take you on a tour of the world of the famous Simond brand!
A WORD FROM SIMOND
SIMOND, a benchmark in mountain equipment for over 150 years.
In the Chamonix valley, at the foot of Mont Blanc, SIMOND crafts its products with a team of 40 people, mountain dwellers by birth or adoption, rich in the diversity of their origins and know-how.
Constantly listening to climbers around the world, SIMOND develops innovative, simple, reliable and effective products, adapted to all climbing practices, from indoor climbing to long-distance ascents.
Team SIMOND subjects its equipment to the most extreme conditions, and continues the tradition: "SIMOND, equipment for feats!
As an international brand present in over 30 countries, SIMOND is actively involved in French, European and international standards committees: AFNOR, CEN and UIAA.
As a fully-fledged member of the Decathlon group, SIMOND is proud to share the values and meaning: "to share with as many people as possible our passion for the mountains and their most beautiful routes."
