An alpine brand, Millet, born in France in 1921.
In 1950, it was Millet's backpack that supported the French team's first-ever human ascent of an 8,000m peak, Annapurna.
Triggered by this historic achievement, Millet stepped into the limelight in the world of mountaineering. Since then, it has continued to walk alongside mountain guides and athletes representing their eras, growing to become a premier French alpine brand to this day.
Even today, 100 years after its founding, from the foot of the famous peak Mont Blanc, it continues to deliver original and innovative products to the world, leveraging its unchanging passion and accumulated experience.
