Skookum Communications has announced that it has been appointed to handle the UK communications for American travel and outdoor apparel brand, Royal Robbins. Founded by Liz and Royal Robbins, pioneers in Yosemite’s golden age of big wall climbing in the 1960s, the company was started when the pair saw a photograph of themselves after summiting the legendary Half Dome in ripped, denim shorts. They decided to start a clothing business that both shared their sustainability values and brought functional outdoor apparel.
