Our Purpose
Take them to the Moon, if you have to.
At Bear Athletes, our mission is simple yet profound: Gear for a Lifetime, Not a Season.
We are here to redefine what it means to create outdoor and sportswear. Our purpose goes beyond crafting high-quality products—it’s about fostering a deeper connection with the gear you rely on and the environment that inspires your adventures.
Built to Last
In a world of fleeting trends and disposable goods, we focus on creating timeless, versatile gear designed to accompany you through every challenge. Whether you’re running through city streets, hiking rugged trails, or training at the gym, Bear Athletes products are made to adapt, perform, and endure.
Sustainability at Our Core
From sourcing sustainable materials to partnering with ethical manufacturers in Portugal, we’re committed to reducing our environmental footprint. We believe in conscious consumption, creating products that last longer and reduce waste. Every decision we make reflects our respect for the planet and our dedication to making a positive impact.
Community of Adventurers
Bear Athletes isn’t just a brand; it’s a movement. We’re building a community of like-minded individuals who value quality, durability, and responsibility. Our gear is for those who embrace every adventure, both outdoors and urban, with passion and purpose.
Repair and Renew
We believe in keeping your gear in action. That’s why we offer a lifetime repair policy to extend the life of your products and reduce waste. Small tears, big care—because sustainability doesn’t stop at the point of purchase.
Crafted in Portugal. Made for Every Adventure
Our products are thoughtfully crafted in Portugal, where tradition meets innovation. By working closely with skilled manufacturers who share our values, we ensure that every piece is made with care, precision, and purpose.
Fix it, don’t ditch it. How does it work?
If your Bear Athletes gear sustains damage from regular use—whether it’s a ripped seam, a broken buckle, or worn-out fabric—we’ll repair it free of charge. Simply send it to us, and we’ll get it back to you ready for the next adventure. Please note that while we cover the cost of return shipping, the shipping cost to send your item to us is your responsibility.
Steps:
- Request a Repair: Send us an email at order@bearathletes.com with details of the damage and photos of the item.
- Send It In: Ship your gear to our repair center. Remember, you’ll need to cover the shipping cost to us.
- Gear Restored: Once repaired, your gear will be returned to you, ready for more adventures.
If your gear has suffered extreme damage that cannot be repaired, we’ll take it back and responsibly recycle it. As a thank-you for choosing sustainability, we’ll provide you with a discount on your next purchase to help you gear up for future adventures.
Patches or sewing kits can be found in most stores, and we encourage you to give repairs a try! If you’d like guidance, we’re more than happy to jump on a call to walk you through the process and make sure your gear gets the care it needs.
