Nemo Equipment Tents
|
On April 24, 2002, while a student at the Rhode Island School of Design, Cam Brensinger incorporated NEMO Equipment, Inc with the intention of bringing high-level design and engineering to the outdoor industry. Only two months later, following his graduation, Cam moved NEMO into an historic mill in Nashua, NH. A quick drive from both New Hampshire's White Mountains and the great design and business resources available from connections at RISD and MIT, Nashua was the perfect location to establish the company headquarters. The first two years in Nashua were focused on developing NEMO's AirSupported Technology™. Tents were chosen as NEMO's first product line because Cam saw the opportunity to bring significant new innovation to the market and knew that successfully revolutionizing tents would give NEMO the credibility to move into new product lines in the future. NEMO debuted their first generation of AST™ and Extreme Conditions tents at the Summer Market Outdoor Retailer show in Salt Lake City, Utah in August of 2004. The tents instantly captured the attention of the industry. NEMO was published in the "Best of Show" section of the OR Daily publication, Team NIKE/Balance Bar asked NEMO to co-develop a tent for adventure racing and officials from the ISPO BrandNew Award committee invited NEMO to submit for the winter of 2005. NEMO went on to be named the overall winner of the 2005 ISPO BrandNew Award, an award which recognizes the most innovative products in the outdoor industry from around the world. This important honor brought worldwide recognition to NEMO and marked the beginning of a very long series of awards, honors and media attention which continues to build momentum.
After a year of further testing and development, NEMO began selling limited quantities of their tents in May of. NEMO tents began traveling the world on expeditions, adventure races and backpacking and cycling trips. The sun is rising on NEMO. In 2006, NEMO tents can be found in specialty retailers across the country and online. There is a growing list of people counting on NEMO shelters to provide a home in the wilderness including world-class adventure racers, alpinists, backpackers, kayakers, cyclists and anyone else that knows that having the ultimate adventure demands having the ultimate gear.
Our personal favorite is the Nemo Losi Storm 2P Backpcking Tent. The thing is ridiculously light, and perfect for 4 season adventure when weight is important.
