Who are we? Animal was acquired by Mountain Warehouse and re-launched in the Summer of 2021, initially with an online presence only, before we moved to showcasing a range in some of our stores. We are so excited to be opening our first few stores, with the first one being in Pitlochry, Scotland.  The new Animal in-house design team have taken inspiration from Animal’s board sports heritage to create a range of authentic, trend-led, and eco-friendly products. Passionate about sustainability, we’ve added well-established sustainable material partners to our supply chain such as PrimaLoft®, ECOVERO™, and TENCEL™ Lyocell, as well as increasing the amount of Organic Cotton and recycled materials in our ranges. We have also partnered with reGAIN, who help divert product from landfill and contribute to a circular environmental retail model.  

Mountain Warehouse has 365+ stores globally and over 3000 employees; we are a leading outdoor retailer, with an always-evolving attitude.  You can find out about our fantastic own-brand products, as well as our newly launched brands, such as Animal, at www.mountainwarehouse.com.  We’re working hard on sustainability, introducing more and more organic and recycled products- One Planet.  Check out our “Inside the Outdoors” section, where you can explore the outdoors, find expert advice on how to choose your ski pants or top tips for dog owners, and learn about some of our charity ventures.
