MontBell America was established in the fall of 2002. Our flagship store in Boulder, CO showcases a wide variety of high-performance, high-quality lightweight outdoor clothing and equipment. Founded and based in Osaka Japan, MontBell has been manufacturing high quality lightweight clothing and equipment since 1975 and is proud to have established a US store, website, and wholesale operation.

MontBell chose Boulder for their first U.S. store because of the city's world-wide reputation as a mecca for outdoor recreation. Nestled at the foot of the majestic Rocky Mountains at an elevation of 5,430 feet (1,655 m), Boulder boasts over 41,000 acres of protected open space and mountain parks containing more than 200 miles (322 km) of public hiking and biking trails, and numerous world-famous climbing areas. The city was recently rated the "No.1 Sports Town in America" by Outside Magazine.

On September 2003, MontBell America added its American distribution and service facility also in Boulder, Colorado. The distribution center, a clear commitment to MontBell's presence in North America, will serve all the retail partners as well as its customers in North America. MontBell strives to offer the best customer service and finest lightweight gear available.
