Commenting on the expansion, Venki Maheshwari, Co- Founder of Gokyo, said, “We are excited to bring Gokyo’s innovative, high-quality adventure gear to the Silicon Valley of India. Our aim is to provide adventurers with premium products and firsthand expertise, ensuring they are well-prepared for their next outdoor venture. As we expand our presence nationwide, we aspire to inspire more people to embark on exciting adventures.”
The brand name “Gokyo” is derived from Gokyo Ri, a peak famous for its breathtaking panoramic views of the Everest region. Drawing inspiration from the Sherpa tribe and Gokyo Lake at its base, the brand’s vision and mission are deeply rooted in this heritage.
To address the unique needs of each adventurer and to provide a first-hand experience of the exhaustive range of Gokyo products, the new store will also showcase Gokyo’s Explorer, Alpine, and Sherpa series, to meet varying climatic conditions and expedition levels.
Sherpa Series: Engineered for adventurers braving extremely cold temperatures from 10°C to -5°C, the Sherpa Series utilizes special fabrics with bonded and brushed inner layers to maximise comfort, flexibility, and heat retention.
Alpine Series: Aimed at intermediate adventurers tackling mild winter conditions and lower altitudes, the Alpine Series combines functional styling with protection against both cold and harsh UV rays.
Explorer Series: Ideal for beginners, the Explorer Series offers comfort and protection against mild winters and lower altitudes, safeguarding users from both cold and sun exposure.
By offering tailored solutions for different levels of adventurers, Gokyo ensures that everyone is equipped with the perfect gear for their journey.
