When the Outside Calls, Coleman helps you answer.
Coleman is an American outdoor gear brand founded by W.C. Coleman (William Coffin Coleman). It began in 1900 in Wichita, Kansas, and grew from portable gas lanterns and camping stoves to offer tents, sleeping bags, coolers, backpacks, and more. It is part of Newell Brands and, as its official guiding principle, states that “time spent outside reconnects people with each other and the planet, creating a path to a better tomorrow.”

Concept

At Coleman®, we believe that time spent outside reconnects people with each other and the planet, creating a path to a better tomorrow.
