A PIECE OF ALPINE SOUL
Raised by the alps
Born and raised in the Swiss Alps, brothers Mat and Seb founded HAE out of a shared love for mountain adventure and an insatiable passion for nature.
Joining forces with AWA, they created a new carrying strap designed to take your AWA Steel to new heights.
handmade and limited
Each HAE × AWA strap is made by Mat himself at HAE in Valais, Switzerland. Cut, assembled and finished by hand in a limited run of just 100 pieces.
Reclaimed Climbing Ropes
Mammut puts every climbing rope through rigorous safety testing. Rope that doesn’t meet the standard required for technical climbing never makes it onto the mountain.Rather than let the material go to waste, Mammut passes it on to HAE, where we give it a new purpose as the HAE × AWA strap.
A COMMON THREAD
Adventurous at heart, with a shared love for materials and craft, AWA and HAE approach making in much the same way: thoughtful materials, functional design, and objects made to last.
We hope this collaboration takes you further, whether that’s on your next hike or simply on the way to class with one less thing to carry in your hands.
