Snowy Peak founder and CEO Peri Drysdale grew up on her family farm where generations of fine wool was managed for more than 150 years. Daughter Emily worked in Europe as a freelance sportswear designer for leading international sportswear brands before joining the family business.

\"\"<\/a>Emily Drysdale officially joined the company in 2000. She had earned a Bachelor of Design (Fashion) from Wellington, New Zealand and a Master of Arts in Performance Sportswear Design<\/em> from Derby University in the United Kingdom. She received a New Zealand Young Designer of the Year<\/em> award (1995) and the prestigious New Zealand Future Design Supreme Award<\/em> (1998). Emily\u2019s winning design was purchased by Te Papa, Museum of New Zealand for their permanent collection.

\"\"<\/a>Emily says she loves working alongside her Mum. She expresses how exciting it is to have the freedom as a designer to really make a difference. She explains it’s a challenging path to design sustainable luxury fashion because lots of research and discovery is required. Yet she loves the journey.<\/p>\n

Through the Untouched World\u2122 brand label, innovative technology with fine merino and other natural fibers continues to be pioneered. Hence the Snowy Peak slogan, high performance meets fashion<\/em> holds true today.<\/p>\n
