April 18th…..We’re currently in the production and outreach phase, waiting on a round of printed samples while refining our pricing strategy slightly delayed due to ongoing tariff uncertainties. Despite that, we’ve already delivered Klava orders to Mammoth Track Club, tech firm MasterBorn, and a youth ski team in Washington. Samples have also been dropped with key race promoters, including the Boulder Mountain Tour, Atomic Ski in Park City, the Yellowstone Rendezvous, and the Teton Ridge Classic.

We’re especially excited about a collaborative sample series being developed for a well-known photographer—whose iconic images may soon wrap around a Klava (pending final approval once samples arrive). On the NGO and team side, USA Nordic Combined has committed to Klavas for both 2025 and 2026, and Pebble Creek Ski Area is back onboard as well.

One unexpected but validating moment came when a local concrete company placed a 300-unit order after discovering Klavas on the mountain…proof that this product’s reach goes beyond outdoor sport and deep into everyday life.

Lastly, our Mailchimp email blast is prepped and ready to go out to our 2,000+ past climbing and cycling retail contacts. Once the tariff situation is more stable, we’ll begin rolling out wholesale orders before the end of May.
