Mountainsmith Unveils New Adventure Photography Packs
27 February 2018
Mountainsmith has launched a new series of six adventure photography packs designed in collaboration with world-renowned adventure photographers Andy Mann and Keith Ladzinski.
Mann and Ladzinski have developed a close relationship with Mountainsmith over the years, testing products and offering key input that has fueled the design process for multiple projects.

"We're not so much working for a client, but working amongst honorary members of the Mountainsmith team. As designers, we know their requirements for rugged gear and we understand the harshness of the environments where they like to push the boundaries on their photography and video skills.
"As camera and video equipment has changed over the years, so too have Keith and Andy's shooting styles and the Mountainsmith field gear necessary to keep them on point. Having a deep relationship with these two photographers allows us to keep our product development flow nimble and expedient."
