OPSG Focus & Mission
Our north star is simplicity, and consistency of design. We focus on the essentials, and solid tailoring fundamentals. We take a minimalistic approach to design from start to finish. The results are highly effective products, that are not overly complicated, and are elegantly simple. This approach allows us to produce highly effective, extraordinarily rugged gear this is cost effectively priced. This is the O.P.S.G philosophy of Elegantly Rugged Gear. At O.P.S.G. our mission is to make gear that always meets this ideal balance.
Field Friendly - The Confidence Of Resilience
Field Friendly is the fundamental OPSG design concept. The goal is to create items that are functionally versatile and extremely well made. In fact, odd as this sounds, we focus on failure. We understand that failure is inevitable. So, by accepting that all things fail in time, we can work to isolate and mitigate the weaknesses in our products. Through this process we create the most robust products possible.
By looking for potential failure points in any given product from moment one we can remove design weaknesses whenever possible and mitigate weak points that cannot be designed away or removed. The result is a final product where, failure is unlikely, but should a failure occur repairs will be possible in minutes, easily completed and can be easily made by anyone and with minimal effort.
New Old Stuff
The USA has its own brand of outdoorsmanship born out of the taming of a wild and expansive new land. This rich history can be seen in our vintage gear. Some of this gear immigrated here and some was born here and much of it can still be found. Though it is often well worn and not field deployable this old gear is captivating. It has a rugged beauty, and elegant simplicity that makes its appeal timeless.
Our Tales of Trails products revisit this iconic gear. Though not absolute reproductions these items trace their lineage to historic gear. We carefully update the design of these items while preserving their historic integrity.
