Diamond Brand

It's not your typical work week around here... Over the weekend, Western North Carolina experienced an unprecedented, generational flood event causing catastrophic damage to countless families, businesses and entire towns in our region. Our factory was submerged under several feet of water as you can see here in the photo that was taken after our neighborhood creek receded. Due to the significant damage at our facility, our factory will be closed for the foreseeable future as we assess the situation and ensure the safety of our employees. The well-being of our team and community is our top priority at this time. We understand the impact this will have on our operations and customers, and we appreciate your patience and support during this difficult time. Our hearts go out to all of our family, friends, neighbors, partners and customers who were also affected, and we are holding them close in thought as we all navigate the challenges ahead. We want to keep our spirits high so we may keep posting on social media and sending our newsletters "as normal", but please know that behind the scenes we are working tirelessly to get back to doing what we love—crafting the best tents on the market and serving the adventurers who inspire us daily. Until then, please stay safe, take care of each other, and know that we will come through this more resilient, and grateful, than ever before. We are #WNCStrong and together we will get through this and rebuild.

Just want to say a humble thank you for the outpouring of support and help for me, my company and my community. I'm in awe of how people have responded. Thank you all!

There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under the heavens
