Gramicci - From the Rockface to the Streets

In the world of climbing, the 70’s saw a paradigm shift that focused more on speed and style rather than the traditional slowly calculated ascent. Born out of the need for functionality and performance to match this new technique, avid Yosemite climber Mike Graham created the first Gramicci product, the G-Short in 1982.

Nothing beats the original. The first ever Gramicci product, the G-Short has stood the test of time, and is still the brand's hero product to this day. The G-Short features a diamond-shaped gusset that Mike Graham found on a pair of kung-fu trousers and added to the crotch for full 180 degree flexibility, whilst hard wearing canvas keeps things sturdy when the going gets tough. 

Naturally, the G-Short progressed over time into the G-Pant. The seemingly indestructible nature of these pants has attracted many walks of walks of life to pick these up as a go-to hardwearing piece. 

As the G-Pant turned into a brand staple alongside the original short, it opened up the opportunity to tweak the fit to personal preference and functional needs.

The Gramicci NN-Pants in Black provides a low rise and slim fit ideal for outdoor function and indoor comfort. These garments are washed for a vintage look and soft hand feel. Consider the Gramicci NN-Pants for the backpacking trails or the local coffee shop mornings.

Through all this, the brand has never lost its roots in climbing and continues to make products designed by and for the climbing elite, as well as ensuring they function in everyday life. Picking up a Gramicci product is an investment that will see you through endless adventures.
