UO Community: Hike Clerb x Fjallraven
If you haven't learned of Hike Clerb yet, we're excited to introduce you. Founded in 2017 by Evelynn Escobar-Thomas, Hike Clerb is an intersectional women’s hike club based in Los Angeles. Knowing she wasn't the only woman of color who wanted to explore the outdoors, Evelynn was inspired to take action by this lack of representation and set out to cultivate a like-minded community of women who shared her same goals.
As a brand with a strong "go anywhere" attitude, Fjallraven felt like a natural fit for the adventurous women of Hike Clerb. To celebrate the launch of Fjallraven's new spring colors, we hit the trail with Evelynn and Hike Clerb members Audrey Tau, Kayla Zwa, Laci Jordan, Melerie Uribe and Ann Buenabora to discuss their inclusive approach, the origins of Hike Clerb and why you should come hike with them. Learn more about Hike Clerb in the video above and make sure to check out Evelynn's "Hike Clerb" playlist here. (Photos and video by Rikki Wright
