About us
Driven by Passion. Founded in Nature.
Meet Jan, the heart and mind behind ALPBOCK. His childhood is connected with a kid running through wet meadows, and his memories filled with the buzz of insects, the cold rush of mountain streams, listening to the rhythm of nature, and evenings warmed by family firesides. These early experiences sparked two lifelong passions: active living and deep respect for nature.
Challenge & Calling:
As Jan advanced in textile engineering—from university to working for top brands—it became clear: standard sportswear relies heavily on fossil-fuel materials, with production models that hurt the planet. That realization became a catalyst for change: why not make sportswear that honors both body and earth?
Mission:
ALPBOCK’s mission is simple yet bold: craft regenerative, circular, fossil-free activewear that you can trust for life . We’re shifting from short-lived fashion to durable, nature-inspired innovation.
Values & Sustainability:
• Local Roots, European Integrity: Designed in Vorarlberg, produced across EU factories powered by solar energy, reusing up to 50% of water, and strictly OEKO-TEX, GOTS, and bluesign® certified.
• Animal-Friendly & Regional Sourcing: We use mulesing-free Merino wool from New Zealand and local European wool from Bodensee and Bregenzerwald—collected directly from farmers.
Vision:
We envision a world where sportswear no longer harms the planet. A world where quality means durability, and growth means regeneration. This is more than clothing—it’s a promise to future generations.
Call to Action:
Join us in designing a cleaner, more thoughtful future—one merino tee at a time.
ENGINEERED in VORARLBERG, AUSTRIA.
ALPBOCK competence lies in conceptualisation, network building, design, materialisation, product development, product testing and quality checks which all are done in headquarter in Vorarlberg.
BEING REGIONAL
is very important to us. We know our supply chain.
Our suppliers are only from EU – Austria, Czech Republic, Germany, Italy, Poland, Romania and Slovakia – short transport routs reduce CO2 burden.
WE Manufacture SUSTAINABLY IN EU
We trust in EU competence and guarantee a fair and smooth production process. Our manufacturers are using power from solar panels, use technologies which save resources and therefore are able to reduce material waste at production sites.
DESIGN
We are reGenerative by design. Nature is a regenerative system without waste. “When leave falls from the three, it feeds forest.” Waste is a human invention.
MATERIALISATION
We use our best knowledge to bring to life functional, renewable and biodegradable materials. We use also materials from “behind the doors” – Vorarlberg. Our suppliers are OekoTex, bluesign certified.
Each year more than 70 million barrels of crude oil are used to produce polyester for clothing industry that’s almost equivalent of Austrian year oil consumption. When it is not recycled, it decomposes (fall apart) in 200 and plus years.
NATURAL PERFORMANCE without BOUNDARIES
because we used functional, renewable and biodegradable materials. Nature’s innovation – wool fibre and mankind innovation – castor bean oil. We work on circular economy.
