About Team Sherpa

ECCO Team Sherpa - A New Hiking Community

ECCO has invited semi-professional hikers to join the newly established hiking team, Team Sherpa. The members are active hikers from all over the world, who constantly push their limits in different kinds of hiking terrain. It is the goal that the team will encourage and inspire people to plan their own hiking adventures.


Team Sherpa Website

www.ecco.com/sherpa will act as an online blogging platform from January 2008. All team members will be blogging about their hiking preparations, training, adventures and experiences. Visitors to the site will be invited to leave comments or questions for the team members while looking through the sherpas’ personal hiking images and podcasts.


ECCO Sherpa Equipment

ECCO will provide all Team Sherpa members with the necessary gear: one pair of ECCO hiking boots from either the X-Factor, X-pedition or X-plorer ranges made from real YAK leather, a GORE-TEX jacket, a knit hat, a backpack for overnight expeditions, and a small YAK mascot to keep spirit high when the going gets tough.
