It all started in Boulder, Colorado. From a basement in their home, the creators are husband and wife Roy and Alice Holubar. They started selling army surplus items to real outdoor enthusiasts in the area. Thanks to an order received from the Arctic Institute of North America, Alice and LeRoy Holubar buy a business license and start operations officially as Holubar Mountaineering, renting a workshop at 1215 Grandview Avenue, in Boulder. Fast forward to the 50s Holubar starts using nylon, at the time a revolutionary material, for its range of clothing and sleeping bags. With a pioneering approach, nylon is also used in combination with down filling. Holubar is the originator of the Mountain Parka, one of the most popular garments ever in North America, then used by many brands, big and small.
