Built on experience, not theory.

Outer Workshop is led by hands-on operators with real experience across product development, overseas manufacturing, and brand growth. We’ve worked inside factories, managed global supply chains, and helped outdoor brands bring products to market that actually perform in the real world.

  • 10+ years working across outdoor and watersports products
  • Direct experience with Asian manufacturing and factory sourcing
  • Leadership roles spanning product, operations, and sales
  • Built, scaled, and supported real brands — not slide decks
