Metolius equipment is born out of respect for the sport we love, rock climbing. We are a unique collection of North American climbers who came together in the 1980s to push our personal limits at Smith Rock. We shared a common passion for hard gymnastic free climbing, bouldering and for exploration in the mountains and on big walls. Twenty five years later we are still totally committed to the climbing lifestyle, making the absolute best equipment, helping to educate others and preserving the environment in which we live and play.
