How Orange Mud
About Us

How Orange Mud Began

Orange Mud was born out of frustration with uncomfortable, poorly designed hydration gear. In 2012, founder Josh created the first prototype—the HydraQuiver—by combining a gun holster, tie-down strap, and waist pack. The result was a no-bounce, easy-access solution built for real athletes, sparking the start of the brand.
