Episode 50: KMF 2024 - Balance with Rab

Get in touch!

Part 1 of our Kendal Mountain Festival 2024 season

Cathy talks with Jon Frederick, Group Marketing Director for Equip (Global) about their key brand Rab.

Recorded in front of a live Audience this fascinating episode gives a real insight into how your favourite outdoor garments journey from concept to reality. This years festival theme is "Balance" and this podcast looks not just at how we, as users, offset or compare the value of one garment over another but also at how production has evolved to balance growth with sustainability, how we are all responsible for how we buy our kit, how product is tested and how, since the very beginning, Rab's partnerships are key to building the best clothing and equipment possible.
