Key facts at a glance

  • Gregory and Faction's first joint ski travel collection will be available from autumn/winter 2026.
  • Four products: Targhee 32, Ski Roller, Wheeled Duffel 100L and Gear Basket 70L.
  • The Targhee 32 offers 32 l of capacity; the Ski Roller accommodates skis up to 195 cm long.
  • The Wheeled Duffel and Gear Basket offer 100 and 70 l of capacity respectively; collection RRPs range from €100 to €250.
  • The collection uses durable materials, a high proportion of recycled fabrics and PFAS-free coatings (C0 DWR).

An early start, cold air, untracked lines: when winter calls, only one thing matters – being on the move. This is where Gregory and Faction come together. The US backpack specialists and the Swiss freeride ski brand are launching their first joint collection. The result is a ski travel collection for a life in motion – from the first departure to the last run. Equipment that moves as seamlessly as the people who use it.

Freeride DNA meets travel expertise

Weather-resistant rolling duffels, thoughtful gear organisation, a Ski Roller and a backcountry pack in unmistakable Faction styling. From the road to the summit, the collection brings together everything a season needs – transported securely and neatly organised.

“Faction brings a strong visual identity and a deep understanding of freeride culture, while Gregory contributes decades of experience developing technical travel and mountain equipment. The collection combines both in a solution that works just as well on the road as it does in the backcountry.”

Targhee 32 – Backcountry meets signature style

The Targhee 32 is a proven companion for freeride and ski touring adventures – and in this collaboration, it features styling inspired by Faction skis. With a stable carry system, convenient access and durable materials, it is built for demanding use in the backcountry.

• Volume: 32 l • Weight: 1.54 kg • Max. load: 20.4 kg • RRP: €230

Ski Roller – Ready for take-off

Wheeled Duffel 100L – Made for long winter trips

The Wheeled Duffel 100L offers ample space for extensive equipment. The combination of tough polycarbonate and recycled polyester ripstop with a TPU coating provides reliable protection in all weather, while sturdy wheels and a well-designed compartment layout make travelling noticeably easier.

Gear Basket 70L – Keeping basecamp organised
