The Explorers Club Outfitters

Part of our new Explorers Club x Tombolo Collection! 

The four-piece collection is headlined by the ‘Chum’ Cabana in Tombolo’s signature organic cotton terry cloth. It features intricately chain-stitched depth contours like those found on navigational charts, and an embroidered life ring on the chest framing the iconic compass rose logo. Like any great expedition, this shirt leaves no detail unconsidered: its collar features an enamel flag pin and a high-visibility orange underside. It even ships with a custom whistle (also in high-visibility orange) -- perfect for calling for rescue when encircled by sharks.

Provenance

The legendary Explorers Club — which counts Rowing Blazers founder and creative director Jack Carlson among its esteemed membership — has been championing scientific discovery and global fellowship since its founding in New York City over a century ago. The club is perhaps best known for its “Famous Firsts,” a series of era-defining feats: members were the first to visit the North Pole (1909), the South Pole (1911), the summit of Mount Everest (1953), the Mariana Trench (1960), and the surface of the moon (1969).

Made in collaboration with Sea Bags. Available exclusively at The Explorers Club Outfitters. Handcrafted from recycled sail cloth on a working waterfront in Portland, Maine, USA.  

Our Classic Baseball Cap has been around for ages! It's been worn across the globe – in the field, at club headquarters, and everywhere in between. Available in Navy, Kalahari Khaki, Jungle Green, Space Black, or Ocean Blue. Featuring 100% cotton twill, 6-panel construction, waving flag embroidery, and "The Explorers Club" above its adjustable back. One size fits all.

Part of our new The Explorers Club x Fjallraven Collection: a hand-picked selection of gear customized and designed for The Explorers Club in collaboration with legacy outdoors company Fjallraven.

The Explorers Club Kånken Backpack, available exclusively at The Explorers Club Outfitters and designed in collaboration with Fjällräven. Available in a new color way inspired by The Explorers Club Flag. Features an exclusive EC Compass Rose embroidery.

Straight backs are happy backs! Kånken was created as far back as 1978 to help prevent back problems among Swedish school children and quickly became a common sight at preschools and nature schools throughout the country. Today, 35 years later, Kånken has straightened millions of backs across the globe and has become one of Fjällräven's most beloved products. This classic backpack is equally suited to journeys to and from school or work, as it is to trekking and travelling -- and exploring!

The material is hard-wearing, lightweight Vinylon F fabric that is able to withstand dirt and wetness. The spacious main compartment has a large opening with a zip, which makes it easy to pack and unpack. It has two flat side pockets and a zipped pocket on the front, perfect for those bits and bobs that you want to keep close at hand. The carrying system is simple but practical and consists of handles at the top and slender, adjustable shoulder straps. The logo on the front is reflective. It also has an address label inside the main compartment. 

Discover the extraordinary history and thrilling frontiers of exploration with this gorgeously illustrated guide from The Explorers Club, the esteemed home of the world's most prominent explorers.

The discovery of the North and South Poles. The summiting of Everest. The moon landing. The (largely unknown) birth of climate change science. These are just some of the stories from The Explorers Club, the organization that, since its inception in 1904, has pushed the envelope of human curiosity.

This guided tour of The Club’s most riveting journeys includes hundreds of photos and fascinating anecdotes about The Club’s distinguished members, including Teddy Roosevelt, Neil Armstrong, and Jane Goodall. From the darkest depths of the ocean to the highest points on Earth and to outer space and beyond, this book shares not just the inspirational history of modern exploration, but also reveals how it has evolved and continues to be relevant—even urgent—today.
