Why New Tribe?

Folks often ask us, "You're into tree climbing gear. Why the name New Tribe?

New Tribe includes the family of folks who work here, the larger family of you who use our tree climbing gear, and the even greater family of you who share our passion. We are inspired by the old tribes everywhere who could craft a way of life in harmony with their surroundings. We take modern tools and materials and create a way to be as at home outdoors as we are inside our homes--just like the old tribes. And we share a sense of connection with wild nature. We see each other and all creatures as kindred spirits.
