History

Eagle Creek was founded in 1975 by Steve and Nona Barker in the San Jacinto Mountains of California, where they ran a retail store called Mountain People selling custom mountain packs. Production began in a Шаблон:Convert manufacturing facility in Solana Beach, California.[2]

After beginning negotiations in late 2006,[3] Eagle Creek was acquired by VF Outdoor, Inc., a subsidiary of clothing company VF Corporation, in January 2007.[4]

On June 10, 2021, VF, the parent company of Eagle Creek, announced that it would retire the Eagle Creek brand by the end of 2021, citing strategic and financial difficulties.[5][6]

On September 8, 2021, it was announced that the former president of emerging brands of VF Corporation, Travis Campbell, would acquire the Eagle Creek brand. The sale includes all Eagle Creek assets and liabilities.[7]
