The Joe Brown helmet was originally manufactured by Joe himself in the back room of the Llanberis shop, and it was here that he later made the Joe Brown harnesses and climbing software.

For any who don’t know, Joe Brown was the foremost rock climber and mountaineer of his generation, and perhaps the greatest all round mountaineer ever. Indeed, he is still climbing, although now in his mid-seventies.
