| Brian Kelleghan thinks outside the box. Not too many people would look at climbing gear and come up with pet collars, but the founder of Bison Designs did just that back in 1987. Using webbing for climbing, he began designing belts and pet collars from the weather-resistant, shock-tested material - perfect for the dog who suddenly lunges into action when a rabbit crosses his path. Staying true to their mountaineering roots, Bison Designs has also taken the carabiner and molded it into dozens of useful, whimsical shapes. It's impossible to say what Brian and Bison Designs will come up with next, but you can be sure they will carry on the tradition of finding practical new uses inspired by mountaineering equipment. |
