Arc’teryx to Open Brand Store at Mall of America®
BLOOMINGTON, MN— August 5, 2019
Arc'teryx, the leading global design company specializing in technical, high-performance apparel, outerwear and equipment, will be opening a new brand store at Mall of America® later this year located on level 1, West.
Headquartered in the Coast Mountain wilderness outside of Vancouver, British Columbia, Arc'teryx is built on the principle of obsessive design and production. With the opening of its Mall of America store, guests will be able to shop from a wide variety of climbing, hiking, snow sports, trail running and lifestyle apparel, footwear and accessories.
“We are thrilled to be opening our newest brand store in the iconic Mall of America,” shares Stephanie Jamieson, Retail Marketing Manager for Arc’teryx. “Minneapolis is a thriving community centered around adventure, and we look forward to helping fuel that spirit for customers new and existing moving forward.”
Founded in 1989, Arc’teryx is made up of designers who are agents for change. In 1997, the brand introduced WaterTight™, the industry's first waterproof zipper which is now used by almost every outerwear manufacturer in the world. In 2016, Arc’teryx was the first to combine the low volume and light weight of a single mountaineering boot with the quick-dry insulated and waterproof properties of a double boot – allowing for optimum protection and comfort. With an unrelenting commitment to sustainability, Arc’teryx has spent the last 30 years obsessing over the materials it chooses, where its products are manufactured and the repair services it offers. To that end, the brand recently launched a recommerce hub featuring a buy-back program that allows customers to access supremely technical gear for less while minimizing the brand's environmental footprint.
