Purple Mountain Observatory (est. Carrier Goods) - Dedication to Detail

Founded in 2020, Purple Mountain Observatory (est. Carrier Goods) seamlessly blends the worlds of outerwear and sportswear with subtle hints of streetwear laced throughout. The goods are just as at home on the mountain as they are in the city streets, with quality and dedication to detail at the forefront of the design process.

Heavily inspired by a love of hiking, trails and the great outdoors - Purple Mountain Observatory products feature clear cues to the brands outdoor identity. The Purple Mountain Observatory ‘Global Equipment Supplies’ globe logo can be found tastefully placed throughout the product offering, whether it be via printed or embroidered application. 

Solid staples in the form of boxy fit graphic tees and heavyweight crews & hoods form the foundation of the brands offering, which is further rounded out with insulating micro-fibre fleece, technical quilted jackets and statement two-pieces. 
Carrier Goods Logo T-Shirt
The Carrier Goods Logo T-Shirt is a 100% cotton boxy fit piece with distinctive branding hits at the front and rear. The red and white print pops against the mustard base to create a subtle yet instantly recognisable brand staple that will stand the test of time. A true outdoors, streetwear blend. 
Carrier Goods Take a Hike Hooded Sweatshirt - Black

With a range built for layering, as we move past the base t-shirt layer - Carrier Goods offer an array of heavyweight hooded sweatshirt and crewneck options.

A highlight is the Take A Hike Hooded Sweatshirt, featuring an understated black on black front logo hit, with a tongue-in-cheek back print message that you can interpret however you like.  
Carrier Goods Borg Fleece Jacket - Sage Green

Moving further into the technical outerwear category, the Carrier Goods Borg Fleece Jacket features all over contrast patching, with zip placket, left chest branding and ribbing at the cuff and neck.

This extremely comfortable micro-fibre fleece offers a functional high neck, making it an insulated, hardwearing option perfect for layering.

Carrier Goods Walking Trousers & Jacket

To round out the collection with two instantly memorable pieces, Carrier Goods provide a Tie-Dye Nylon Jacket and Walking Trouser. A two-piece finished with a unique and carefully considered tie-dye application to give the already special set a distinctive golden glow. 

The Carrier Goods Nylon Jacket features a drawcord hood, elasticated cuffs and drawcord adjusters at the hem to maintain the ideal fit - with twin hand pockets, and minimal twin chest pockets to keep your goods secure and hands warm.

Its walking trouser counterpart is a lightweight, functional piece featuring adjustable cuffs, twin hand pockets, rear flap pockets and an adjustable waist for the ideal fit.
Carrier Goods Collection
Incredibly well thought out placement, cuts, and branding throughout Carrier Good’s collections show their true dedication to detail - all whilst successfully encapsulating their love of the great outdoors. This combination makes Carrier Goods a solid choice, whether it be for the daily grind or the road less travelled.
