What's the story?
The brand establishment can be traced back to 1895 in the United States,when Mr. Fox opened a clothing store on Carl Fox Boulevard in Houlton,Maine. The Fox family worked together in the shop,providing premium outfits and sporting goods for locals who enjoy outdoor sports such as hunting,yachting,rock climbing,etc. As he quoted,"The beauty and scenery those adventurous gentlemen see in nature,are like extraordinary outfits the nature endows the landscape with. Our design should fit in as those landscapes while showcasing the spirit of adventure and practicableness."
