Positive early response to ‘celebration of extremes’, Columbia says
Outdoor footwear and apparel group Columbia Sportswear has reported revenues of just over $2.3 billion for the first nine months of 2025, an increase of 2% compared to the same period in 2024.
Revenues were down by 2% in the group’s home market, the US, reaching just over $1.3 billion, but there was growth in other markets.
Sales in Latin America and Asia, which Columbia reports together, reached $411 million in the first nine months of this year, an increase of 9% year on year.
The figure for Europe was $395.8 million, up by 15%. In Canada, the other market for which the group reports specific numbers, revenues were $168.6 million, up by 1%.
Main brand, Columbia, accounted for just over $2 billion of the nine-month total, up by 3% year on year.
Footwear brand Sorel achieved revenues of $141.9 million, an increase of 1%. There were falls for apparel brand prAna and for Mountain Hardwear. They brought in $79 million and $71 million respectively, falls of 3% and 9% compared to the first nine months of 2024.
Chief executive, Tim Boyle, said the group was focused on “revitalising the Columbia brand” in the US. He said this includes “celebrating the extremes of outdoor adventure”. He said the early response to this had been “overwhelmingly positive”.
He added that a strong international performance underscored the company’s ability to connect “with younger, more active consumers”.
