Alton Goods was founded in South-East Queensland, by two mates with an insatiable appetite for adventure. Inspired by a need to travel lighter and further, the project was brought to life in early 2015, following a hiking expedition in New England's Guy Fawkes National Park.
What started as a conversation around the campfire evolved into the birth of the Kerouac Hammock, an ultra-light sleeping system designed to replace the burdensome tent and mat used by conventional campers. The mission behind the hammock project was to create a high-quality, minimalist product that allowed explorers to take their adventures beyond the current limits.
