Since then Exped have created many highly innovative products and won several awards for their designs. The principle “less is more” flows into the development of Expeds gear in which every feature and extra is one hundred percent in tune with its function in the outdoors. Refined details increase the functionality and comfort of Exped products providing the maximum outdoor experience with minimal means.
