All HMK branded products are designed and developed in northern Oregon at the foot of Mt. Hood for the rider by the rider. We know what conditions life can throw at you, we live them every day here in the northwest. Cold and wet is what we expect when we wake up in the morning, and when the blue bird breaks through it only keeps us charging harder. HMK products are designed to suit whatever the elements throw at us with the durability and comfort we would want from the gear we wear ourselves, because, we do wear it ourselves.
