The spinning wheels of a bike create a metronomic sound. It has a way of lulling you into much needed time to day-dream and consider the what-if’s. In 2016, our founder was rolling through the middle of nowhere - sleep and rest were filling his thoughts. Not because he wanted to stop - but more - thinking about the importance of a good night’s sleep and how it has an effect on everything you do.
With the tent calling and the family ready to rally, is a good night's sleep possible? Let’s be real. The ground can be mean. You wake up bent and cranky more often than not. How are you supposed to “unplug” and enjoy the great outdoors starting your day like that? The short answer is - you don’t.
Let's build a line of products that takes all the best things from our beds at home in a portable, adventure-ready form. What if we could create a sleeping pad that was so comfortable that your groggy morning brain forgot you were even in a tent? How could we build a camping mattress for ultimate comfort in all different kinds of temperatures & weather conditions?
With any idea comes challenge & drive.
Researching materials, finding factories, testing variables, testing more variables. Tons of bad night's of sleep on prototypes... After all the boxes were checked and the feed-back was in: HEST was born from one simple sentence - “I slept well!”
We want you to get after it. Go enjoy the great outdoors. Make memories. Send it extra hard with the assurance that you will sleep well at the end of the day and wake up psyched to do it all over again tomorrow.
Have fun.
~ The HEST Team.
HEST revels in the idea of enabling more people to get outdoors and enjoy all that they have to offer, especially after a good night's sleep. The outdoors and the adventure they offer inspires our everyday lives. This is why we have teamed up to support the good people and causes at Protect Our Winters, POW. As ski industry vets and ski bums at heart, we know POW transcends snowy winters, it is about helping and protecting the places and lifestyles we love from climate change. POW is a community of athletes, scientists, creatives, and business leaders we stand behind who are advancing non-partisan policies that protect our world today and for future generations.
