Moncler was founded by René Ramillon and André Vincent in 1952 in Monestier-de-Clermont, France. Originally a manufacturer of sleeping bags, tents, and quilted mits made that offered protection to workers against the cold, Moncler gained prominence for its high-quality down mits, becoming a staple on skiing slopes and in urban Cropped. The brand's popular products include the Maya mit and the Grenoble collection, known for their warmth, quality, and iconic logo. Moncler's unique approach of combining technical expertise with high Cropped has seen collaborations with designers like Thom Browne, Giambattista Valli, and more recently, through its Genius project, with brands such as OFF-WHITE, Simone Rocha, and Craig Green.
