We all came from the muck.
A few weird cells got together and started to breathe, our eyes opened, and we started to see. With a jolt of electricity, we began to think, to wonder.
Blinking, we crawled out of the sea, we climbed into the trees, we crafted wheels, and then, sweating, curious, and free, we started to ride.
But somewhere between the muck and the mountains, outdoor gear all started to look and feel the same. Clothes that don't enable self-expression or belonging.
So we built something different. Technical where it matters. Comfortable where it counts. Always easy to wear. Clothes that ground you back to the ancient wisdom that we are all a part of nature, not apart from it.
Clothes that look and feel like clothes. Not a costume.
When we are out on our bikes we return to being the effortless, Curious Creatures we all began as. Uncomplicated organisms united by an urge to explore, to strive, to respect and appreciate the magic of the unknown.
This is our most sustainable season yet. Every piece is built in a Fair Trade Certified™ factory with all Bluesign® approved fabrics. Curious Creatures is also a proud member of 1% for the planet.
Our pants and shorts use a special bio-based stretch yarn to ensure the majority of our bottoms are recyclable, promoting a circular economy. We also offer repairs to keep your gear going longer, and a recycling program for when it’s finally time to let go.
We are not perfect. We make product and because of that are inextricably linked to the climate crisis we are currently living in. But we believe through thoughtful design, long-lasting materials and practices our footprints will be soft in the sand.
A Note from Natasha
Founder, Owner, Product Designer and General Bad*ss
We have 3 core pillars to our design philosophy: versatility, comfort, and self expression.
After a decade of designing the most technical pinnacle gear for Patagonia on the Advanced R&D team I left my dream job to start Curious Creatures.
I wanted to build technical outdoor gear that myself and my community wanted to wear. Clothes inspired by classic American sportswear with problem solving design at the heart of it.
Every product is made for the bike, the climb, the hike, the river or whatever you can throw at it. Gear that can take you wherever your overextended schedule has you next. Because I know, nobody really only does one thing.
The soul of our brand lives in our name: Curious Creatures.
We want to celebrate the curiosity of being outside, exploring our world and the creatures in it. We love and honor that feeling we all get when we step away from our everyday human lives and head back into nature: the feeling of returning to being a creature that is a part of nature, not apart from it.
And at the center of all of it is joy. Pure, stupid, unearned joy. The kind you feel on a descent you’ve done a hundred times. The kind that hits when the light does something cool to the trees and you have to stop and stare. The kind that reminds you why you care so much about being outdoors in the first place.
So go explore in clothes that look like clothes, ya weirdo.
