It all started with a problem we all know: finding an original gift for a climber friend. Every birthday, every Christmas, the same struggle — yet another chalk bag, one more t-shirt, another brush… Nothing that truly says who the climber we love really is.
Then it hit us: what a climber is truly proud of is their routes, their grades, their story on the rock. That first hard-fought 6a, that project sent after months, that trip to Siurana or Céüse. A record that doesn't fit on a t-shirt, but deserves to be on the wall.
That's how Born To Climb was born. We turn a climber's tick list into a unique typographic portrait: their face composed, letter by letter, from the names of their routes and grades. A poster printed in premium quality, framed, ready to give.
We make it with love, by climbers, so that the climbing gift you've always been looking for finally exists. Your climbing record, on your wall.
