CAMEL Himalaya mountaineering Team Summits Everest in Groundbreaking TOPEAK-TEX™ Gear

Denver, CO – May 18, 2025– CAMEL Outdoor, the performance-driven brand trusted by adventurers worldwide, today celebrates the historic Everest summit of its CAMEL Himalaya International mountaineering Team. Clad in CAMEL's revolutionary TOPEAK-TEX™ fabric technology, the team conquered the world's highest peak on May 18, delivering real-world validation of CAMEL's commitment to redefining extreme-weather performance through its CAMEL AWESOME PEOPLE initiative.

Summit Success: A Triumph of Technology and Tenacity

The six-member team, including elite Chinese alpine guides, a veteran Everest photographer, and Nepalese Sherpas, faced the mountain's deadliest challenges while rigorously testing CAMEL's most advanced systems:

· TOPEAK-TEX™ Pro Shell Jackets – The team's primary defense against -40°F winds and ice storms, featuring a 100% waterproof yet breathable membrane that outperformed traditional materials at critical high-altitude stages.

· CAMEL AWESOME PEOPLE-Approved Layering System – Moisture-wicking base layers paired with insulated mid-layers prevented sweat buildup during grueling 18-hour summit pushes.

· TOPEAK-TEX™ Expedition Pants – Reinforced knee articulation and abrasion-resistant fabric proved vital during the Hillary Step traverse.

"When your life depends on your gear, there's no room for error," said Sherpa guide. "The CAMEL jacket's waterproof seal held perfectly during the Khumbu icefall storms – we never felt a single drop penetrate, even after days of abuse."

CAMEL AWESOME PEOPLE: Where Elite Athletes Shape the Future of Gear

This expedition epitomizes CAMEL's CAMEL AWESOME PEOPLE ethos: partnering with boundary-pushing explorers to co-create next-generation outdoor solutions. The team's real-time feedback on TOPEAK-TEX™ – recorded via satellite-linked field notes – will drive 2025 innovations including:
✔ 3x stronger waterproof ratings for monsoonal conditions
✔ Patented cold-weather zipper tech to prevent frost-jam failures
✔ Lighter high-altitude insulation without sacrificing warmth

"We don't just test products – we break them until they're unbreakable," emphasized Song Xiaocheng, China Mountaineering Association guide. "That's the CAMEL AWESOME PEOPLE difference."

Inspiring a Healthier, More Adventurous World

Beyond technological advancement, the expedition aligns with CAMEL’s vision to inspire people to embrace outdoor lifestyles. Stunning footage captured by Ding Liang will be released in a documentary series highlighting the team’s journey—and the breathtaking beauty of the Himalayas—to motivate a new generation of explorers.

"We don’t just make gear for the pros," said CAMEL’s Chief Marketing Officer. "We design for anyone who dreams of adventure. This team’s success proves that with the right preparation and equipment, even the tallest peak on Earth is within reach."
