Maker Mondays - Clover Climb

Built for women who see climbing as both adventure and identity, every design carries Clover Climb’s vision of feminine strength, ethical production and the climbing community. From technical innovation to cultural impact, Clover Climb is redefining the future of female outdoor apparel.

We sat down with founder AJ Woods to talk about why female climbing clothing *that actually fits* matters, how outdoor climbing inspires Clover Climb’s designs, and what it means to climb with purpose.

The coolest ski launch this season…
Two time @freerideworldtour junior champion Max Palm just launched his latest collection in partnership with Peak Performance… in a tunnel, in London? Now the city’s rail tunnels might not be what comes to mind for a skiwear launch, but as soon as we saw the riders flying across the rails and mini slopes, we understood.
This weekend, Palm successfully united snow sports and skating under the White Grounds Skatepark, in launching a limited-edition ski capsule.

The collection fuses gritty, grunge-inspired aesthetics with technical performance, spotlighting pieces like the pink Max GORE-TEX 3L Ski Shell Jacket and Max HIPE® 2L Insulated Shell Pants, alongside everyday staples such as coach jackets, statement hoodies, and layered tees.

Max told Peak Performance, “I wanted to bring something totally different and create ski apparel that also has those casual streetwear vibes. The whole collection has turned out crazy cool, and I especially like how you can mix and match the items for your own combinations.”

The almost sold-out capsule is available now both in-store and online. Check it out now!

Maker Monday: Kincos by Swayzie

For those who live with their hands in the cold, Kinco gloves are a staple. Durable, warm, and built to take a beating. But Swayzie King turns them into something more.

From her studio in the U.S., she hand-draws and paints custom designs onto classic Kincos, then seals each pair with Sno-Seal wax for full weatherproofing. The result? Gloves that are as tough as they are personal. Art you can wear. Stories you can shred in.

Customs usually range from £99–£170. Order through her Instagram or Etsy. We’re proud to highlight her work because mountain gear should carry soul.

G2G isn’t just streetwear, it’s a coded language for the city-dweller. Modular, cryptic, and built to layer, their gear blends tonal precision with outdoor edge.

From the Puffer Bear Hood V2 in Hibiscus, Slate, and Midnight to the ALL CITY crossbody in Creamsicle and Cyber Blue, every piece is designed to flex across environments. Their graphic tees, like “Life Is Not Linear,” “Woo Woo Industrial Complex,” and “Reading Routes”, read like wearable manifestos, while Ctrl+Alt+Delete long sleeves remix tech nostalgia with street-coded flair.

Their often sold out accessories range from the hyperlink beanies in 20+ colorways (Amanita, Axolotl, Rose Quartz) and throwie rugs to totes that complete any gorp core fit.
