Our Story

The Beginning

RidgePulse Ltd started with a feeling—the kind you get when your boots hit the trail and the air bites just right. I’m Tom Wade, the founder, and after 12 years of helping steer our family businesses through sales and operations in the Arboriculture and Forestry world, I had the desire to start something which was truly my own. It grew from muddy hikes with my family, a love for gear that holds up, and a drive to share that with others—backpacks that carry dreams, apparel that keeps pace, and guides that light the way. Right now, we’re pre-trading—sourcing samples, testing every stitch, and building toward our July 2026 launch. From a quiet UK corner, RidgePulse is taking shape, fueled by adventure and connection.

Why RidgePulse?

The name says it all. Pulse is the heartbeat of my family—those shared moments on the trail, the quickened rhythm when we push ourselves, the thrill of summits and stories. It’s the rush you feel when adventure calls, whether you’re scaling a peak or chasing a horizon. Ridge is the edge we live on—the rugged spine of mountains, the bold line of a life fully lived, daring you to test your limits. Together, RidgePulse is our promise: gear that matches that beat and lifts you to those heights. It’s not just a name—it’s who we are.

Our Mission

We’re here to ignite your outdoor pulse. RidgePulse crafts premium gear—tough backpacks, performance apparel, trekking accessories, and digital guides—to power every step of your journey. We bridge the wild to families exploring together, solo adventurers chasing ridges, and businesses stocking quality they trust. Launching July 2026, we’ll deliver tools that don’t just endure—they inspire.

Our Values

  • Quality That Lasts: Twelve years in the professional game taught me—gear’s got to work. Every PulseProduct is built for the real world, tested by us first.
  • Family Roots: This is personal—muddy boots, kid-sized packs, my crew on every ridge. We design for your family, too, making the outdoors ours to share.
  • Sustainable Steps: With 87% of adventurers craving eco-options (ESW, 2023), we source gear that respects the wild—recycled fabrics, builds that outlast trends.
  • Trust Forged: Reliability isn’t a buzzword—it’s earned. From a hiker’s first guide to a retailer’s bulk order, we deliver, every time.
  • Adventure Open to All: First-timers or ridge-runners, we’ve got you—gear and guides to make the outdoors alive for everyone.

Where We’re Headed

RidgePulse Ltd is just getting started. As we speak, we're rifling through samples from across the globe—building a lineup that’s rugged, practical, and ours. By July 2026, we’ll hit the ground running, bringing our gear straight to you and looking to partner with UK businesses who share our pulse. Down the line? We'll get to that, let's live in the moment.  Stick with us—the trail’s just beginning.
