Halti Oy

What Halti Oy does

Halti Oy is a Finland-headquartered designer and distributor of outdoor sports and recreation apparel and equipment, founded in 1976 and based in Söderkulla (Helsinki metropolitan area). The company sells functional clothing across multiple performance categories — ski, cross-country ski, hiking, trail, urban outdoor (via the Kallio by Halti sub-brand), weather protection (Pallas, Weather-X), and a dedicated golf line — addressing consumers in Nordic and broader European climates who need waterproof, breathable, and stretch performance garments.

The product portfolio is built around Halti's proprietary DrymaxX waterproof/breathable membrane platform, supplemented by X-stretch fabric technology, UPF sun protection, and a 3D Design process for fit and pattern engineering. The brand is structured into eight labeled sub-collections (Pallas, Kallio by Halti, Hiker, Weather-X, Active Sport, Sportstyle, Ski, XC Ski) that segment the assortment by use case, gender, and intensity, ranging in retail price from roughly EUR 20 accessories to EUR 510 premium outerwear. Athlete endorsement relationships (including cross-country skiers Kerttu Niskanen and Vilma Nissinen, and photographer Harri Tarvainen) support credibility in Nordic winter sports.

Halti operates a direct-to-consumer e-commerce channel shipping to 27 EU countries with country-specific storefronts in Finland, Germany, and Sweden, complemented by a wholesale and specialty retail footprint across Europe. The 2026 Spring/Summer collection comprises 141 SKUs and anchors a broader 50th anniversary marketing program executed through the Halti World community platform and owned email channels. The company is privately held with a 51–100 employee headcount, with Robert Ingman serving as Chairman of the Board. The reported historical funding event in 2004 (3i Group) is the only institutional capital signal on record.
