Founded in 2003, Maxpedition® successfully optimized the design ethos of American military-grade MOLLE gear to suit the needs of everyday life and popularized its functionality to a global audience. Often imitated but never equaled, genuine Maxpedition gear is the benchmark against which others are compared, and it is trusted by special forces operators, law enforcement officers, adventure travelers and prepared citizens around the world.
Coined in the summer of 2003 by company founder & president Tim Tang, the inspirational Maxpedition® brand name is a linguistic blend of the words 'maximum' and 'expedition'. The Latin root 'ped-' central to the name means 'foot' and is graphically represented within our iconic bootprint trademark.

Over the years, as the company and its product lines have matured, so too has the brand logo in order to reflect current fabrication methods in fabrics, plastics and metals, as well as the latest aesthetics of print and online media.
Regardless of the progressive evolution of our logo artwork, the Maxpedition name remains a steadfast beacon, synonymous with the highest level of quality and durability while connoting an unmistakable sense of adventure.
Innovative from the start, Maxpedition gained a competitive edge in its early years by creating bags and packs with superior durability and ergonomics, such as the Versipack® and Gearslinger® series. Our first customers were United States armed forces and SWAT personnel seeking durable kit for surviving the most extreme of situations. As our reputation among professionals solidified, the emergency preparedness and concealed carry markets quickly caught on, also selecting Maxpedition products as their preferred EDC (Every Day Carry) and survival gear.
In 2016 and 2017, Maxpedition launched then expanded its revolutionary Advanced Gear Research™ (AGR™) line, leveraging new technologies, proprietary materials, and custom-fabricated components to create a product range unlike any other.
Never satisfied with the status quo, Maxpedition remains committed to constant improvement - testing new designs, optimizing ergonomics, fine-tuning construction methods, refining aesthetics and experimenting with cutting edge materials.
Most importantly, we realize we are only able to be here because our customers' support. As such, we are always listening to and acting upon our customer's feedback, incorporating their user experience into our product designs and business processes to best fulfill their needs.
