Best eco-friendly hiking brands

Outdoor brands with the highest Sustainability scores. Verified certs (bluesign, GRS, Fair Trade) flow into the rank via the v0.31.5 cert boost.

How we rank

Hiking apparel is largely synthetic; the Sustainability score captures recycled content, biodegradable fibers, and verified third-party certifications. The brands here pair outdoor capability with the lowest-impact materials.
