North Sails

North Sails was founded in 1957 by Lowell North, an American sailor and Olympic Gold Medalist. North was also an engineer, one who methodically focused on building sails that were faster than any competitor and over the years his legacy has lived on as the brand’s culture of innovation and exploration producing generations of patented products and race champions. Today Lowell North’s inspiration lives on North Sails Apparel, designed and developed so that consumers can focus on what’s important– taking on the sea or just navigating modern life. Since its founding in 1987, the brand combines a classic Italian design with the history and real heritage of the American brand. Across all areas of our business we tirelessly pursue ways to increase sustainability. Our aspiration is to steer the course to cleaner oceans, creating a better tomorrow for future generations. We always have exploration and innovation in mind, they are our pillars, the foundation of our brand. We harness nature’s power for exploration; we innovate taking advantage of the latest ideas, and we strive to preserve the Ocean for future generations.
