Collection: Cortazu

Heritage & Philosophy

Born from a 2016 Kickstarter campaign, Cortazu set out to make premium outdoor apparel both sustainable and accessible. As the first Dutch outdoor brand to earn B Corp certification, Cortazu anchors its design in a mission to protect nature and empower exploration. The label’s name blends “cor” (heart) and “tazu” (journey), reflecting its commitment to crafting gear that resonates with the adventurous spirit in us all.

Signature Technology & Materials

Cortazu gear combines high‑performance fabrics with eco‑conscious construction. Its Barrier CT™ outer shells deliver waterproof, windproof protection while maintaining breathability, and insulated layers use recycled synthetics for warmth that treads lightly on the planet. Premium merino wool and technical fleeces provide moisture‑management and odor resistance, and every stitch, from welded seams to water‑based zippers, is chosen to maximize longevity and repairability.

Brand Vision & Evolution

Guided by the belief that business can be a force for good, Cortazu pledges 1 % of annual revenue to conservation through 1 % for the Planet and has already helped regreen millions of square meters. The brand continues to refine its pricing philosophy for fairness, deepen its regenerative partnerships, and expand its community of ambassadors and impact partners. With each collection, Cortazu reaffirms its role as a catalyst for positive environmental change: equipping adventurers to explore more responsibly
