OUR DNA

MARKHOR is the story of a rare animal, agile and powerful, capable of evolving in the most hostile environments. Born in France, the brand embodies the visceral connection between humans and untamed nature. From the very first backpack designed for hunters to today’s technical outdoor equipment, MARKHOR is made for those who live outdoors—out of passion, commitment, or a quest for authenticity.

Driven by the field experience of Anthony Ovini, a hunting guide with over 20 years of experience, and enriched by the expertise of Aurélie Cottard, a stylist specializing in technical outdoor clothing, the MARKHOR team has unmatched knowledge when it comes to equipment designed for extreme conditions. Together, they design, test in real field conditions, adjust, and refine every detail until they achieve a product of absolute reliability. MARKHOR creations are true companions, designed for those who choose to face nature in its most unpredictable and raw form. Each product is a trusted piece of equipment, built to last, to endure, and to perform, without unnecessary embellishments.

Our high-end collections are discreet, functional, and designed to blend into the landscape through mineral-inspired camouflage patterns. No unnecessary gadgets, just perfectly mastered essentials. For MARKHOR, every detail matters: cut, stitching, texture, weight. Our products are field-tested, directly challenged in real conditions, worn by our all-terrain experts, those who know.

Anthony Ovini

A hunting guide for over 20 years, Anthony has travelled through some of the world’s wildest and most untouched landscapes: from the Alps to the forests of Mongolia, from the deserts of Central Asia to the vast expanses of Canada.

With more than 200,000 followers who follow his adventures on social media, he is far more than a figurehead: he is the voice of those who live extraordinary outdoor experiences. Every piece developed by MARKHOR is subject to his field feedback and uncompromising standards. He does not design to impress, he designs to serve.

“We don’t cheat with nature. Either the equipment holds up, or we go home.”

Aurélie Cottard

A stylist and expert in technical design for mountain and hunting gear, Aurélie combines precision, intuition, and innovation. Trained with leading outdoor references at Millet and Lafuma, she understands the importance of a garment that is forgotten once worn, a second skin that follows movement, protects without weighing you down, and blends naturally into the landscape.

Every cut, every material, every detail has meaning. From her workshop in France, she designs robust and ergonomic equipment. Her work on mineral-inspired tones provides camouflage of absolute discretion, capable of blending seamlessly into any natural environment.
