Adventure with purpose
Our outdoor gear and clothing brand invites you to explore the great wilderness, honor the Creator of it all, create positive change in the lives of Guatemalan families, and look good while treading the high places!
"He who forms the mountains, creates the wind, and reveals His thoughts to mankind, He who turns dawn to darkness and TREADS the high places of the earth, the Lord God Almighty is His name."
~ Amos 4:13
Treads partners with the women of UPAVIM in Guatemala City and is changing lives...
With every purchase, you "tread" along the paths of purpose and adventure. Our one-of-a-kind Idaho Treads bags are handmade by women in Guatemala employed with Fair Trade Certified principles. Through Treads you are empowering these families to grow safer communities and inspire hope!
See you on the switchbacks
It's often on the steepest climbs that we develop the perserverance and stamina we need to finish strong. That's why at Treads, we celebrate the switchbacks - the steep, high places where adventures get tough and we learn to lean on the One who enables us to keep going.
The women at UPAVIM understand this well. Located in a “Red Zone” of Guatemala City, their community is plagued by difficulties like gang violence, alcoholism, and malnutrition. UPAVIM is creating new possibilities for these women to lead their families on a steep climb to brighter days.
Would you like to help them persevere up the switchbacks of life?
