I am Augustin Vergara (Augie), an award-winning product designer merging high-performance technical outerwear with urban lifestyle aesthetics.
A FIT alumnus with a background in major athletic brands, I bring a unique, diverse perspective to the outdoor industry.
Based in Marin County California, I specialize in creating commercially successful, high-sell-through products that bridge technical demands with modern style.
Growing up in the diverse, urban setting of Union City, NJ, I never imagined Iād spend my adulthood designing pinnacle gear for the Mountains. Yet, after graduating from the Fashion Institute in NYC and working with premier athletic brands, I found my passion at the intersection of technical functionality, and lifestyle fashion. Now living in Marin County, I leverage my background to bring a fresh, diverse perspective to the outdoors, delivering products that perform in any climate without compromising on aesthetic appeal.
