Venki (Venkatesh Maheshwari) Co-founder of Gokyo Outdoor Clothing & Gear at the top of Everest Summit.

A Note From The Co-founder

After spending close to 30 years in the global apparel & retail world, I kept coming back to one thing—India needed better gear for the outdoors. Not lifestyle wear pretending to be rugged, but real, high-performance clothing for people chasing real exploration.

As someone who's climbed Everest and lived the highs and lows of outdoor life, I knew what was missing. So I started Gokyo—to build gear that works where it matters most, for those who step into the wild not for show, but for something deeper.​
