In 2017, HEST was founded with a simple mission: Revolutionize the way you sleep outdoors.
The spinning wheels of a bike create a metronomic sound. It has a way of lulling you into a state of daydreams and considering 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 affects 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?
"How'd you Sleep?" is likely the most commonly-asked question in the morning when camping, often even before coffee. Bad sleep in the outdoors hinders so many people from experiencing the wonders of the natural world. We wanted to fix this and enable more people to enjoy the outdoors. After years of researching, geeking out on materials, variables and testing prototypes, HEST was born after one simple line of truth, "I slept well!" Because if you can sleep well, you can play more and maximize your time spent outdoors.

The name HEST derives from Hestia, the ancient Greek goddess of the family hearth & home. Just like Hestia, HEST represents comfort, hygge, and that cozy feeling you get when spending quality time with the people you love most. Bringing the comforts of home along on adventures was the founding idea behind HEST. We think camping should be just as comfortable as a night in your home bed.
