Founded in a small workshop in the French Alps in 1921, Millet has over a century of experience crafting equipment for mountaineers and outdoor enthusiasts. The brand gained international recognition in 1950 by equipping the first successful expedition to summit Annapurna, an 8,000-meter peak. This cemented its reputation for creating reliable, high-performance gear designed to withstand extreme conditions. Millet's core products include technical backpacks, apparel, sleeping bags, and footwear, all developed and tested in collaboration with professional climbers and mountain guides from Chamonix.
