Founded in 2020 in Vancouver by Vis Bi—an outdoorsman and contemporary artist who sought gear that balanced technicality with spiritual aesthetics—UPPERVOID is an emerging outdoor apparel brand. The brand bridges the gap between high-performance functionality and contemporary design, creating versatile pieces that serve as both reliable tools and aesthetic statements. UPPERVOID’s core offerings include sculptural hard shells, insulated jackets, and trail running apparel, all developed through a rigorous functional need-fulfilling process before being refined for style. The brand is distinguished by its commitment to sustainability and material innovation. UPPERVOID utilizes plant-grade, bio-based materials and recycled fabrics, notably introducing a hard shell made with castor seeds that significantly reduces carbon emissions. The brand also employs a "Virgin Colors" approach, eliminating the environmentally damaging dyeing process to present fibers in their natural milky white hue.
