Increased Focus on Sustainability, Weight Reduction, and Insulation
NEMO, the award-winning, independent designer of outdoor gear and accessories built to improve the adventure experience, is excited to announce its 2022 line of new and updated backpacking gear with an increased focus on sustainability, weight reduction, and insulation.
One of the most exciting updates for the 2022 line is the new OSMO recycled fabric in the Dagger OSMO™ and Hornet Elite OSMO™ series.

OSMO is made from 100% recycled yarns that are PFC- and PFAS-free and meet flame retardancy standards without the use of added chemicals.
