This is the final chapter of the story of how Constant Mountain started. I've shared the pivot to offshore production in another blog. This one dives into how that pivot happened and why I’m so happy it did.
Finding Intermax: A Perfect Match for Constant Mountain
My research into technical apparel production led me to Vietnam, where some of the best technical garments in the world are made. I was fortunate to connect with Chris Walker, an expert in this space who introduced me to Max Han, the owner of Intermax.
Max has built a world-class apparel production facility in Vietnam, but more importantly, he and his team are wonderful people who share common core values with Constant Mountain.
From Intermax’s website:
“Responsibility
Our quality and reliability are built upon the welfare of our employees. Since the opening of our first factory, employee welfare and workplace safety have been a top priority for our management. With continuous monitoring, training, and education, we are developing our staffs and living up to the responsibility we have for our customers. We also have a responsibility for the communities that surround our workplace. These communities are an integral part of our workers and their family’s lives.
Sustainability
We at Intermax work with all of our partners - customers and suppliers whose priority is on the environment. It could be the environmental impact of fabric finishing, including water consumption, emissions, and waste management. Or brands that emphasize sustainability in fashion from the start at a design to retail and recycling. As a manufacturer, we will continue to learn and strive to optimize the processes that will help us minimize negative environmental impacts. We look to conserve energy and natural resources continuously. This also helps us to enhance employee, community, and product safety.”
When I met Max and his team in person and visited the factory, it was clear that these weren’t just words—they are the foundation of how Intermax operates.
Why This Partnership Matters
From the beginning, I made it a priority to educate myself on the global apparel industry. What I found wasn’t pretty, and I knew I didn’t want Constant Mountain to add to those problems. Finding a production partner who shared my values wasn’t negotiable—it was essential.
With Intermax, I found that partner. Their commitment to responsibility and sustainability aligns perfectly with Constant Mountain’s mission.
If you’re interested in learning more about Intermax, please reach out—I’d love to share more about them. I’m proud to call them partners and friends.
Not Just the Infinity Pocket - a True World-Class Garment
These jackets aren’t just about the Infinity Pocket. Even without it, they are top-quality, better than “brand names” at a similar price. I stand by that with full confidence and back it up with a “Try it for 30 days” guarantee—you can even return it out of spite.
