our story


Since 1936 ust has been creating survival, camping and outdoor equipment. Within the past few years, we moved headquarters from jacksonville, fl up to columbia, mo…and we’ve taken this opportunity to re-imagine what ust can be moving forward.
As many of you know from following along with our rebrand process, ust has gone through some major changes the past couple of years. We have broken into new core camping categories with tents, sleeping bags, sleeping mats, etc. With sustainability in mind, the ust team has also decreased the brand’s product footprint while still offering a robust line of accessories.
