Revolutionary GCI Outdoor LevrUp Canopy Highlights Product Assortment During Summer Outdoor Retailer Show 2022

One-Person, One-Lever Setup To Become New Industry Standard

NASHVILLE, Tenn. and DENVER, June 8, 2022 /PRNewswire/ --

Gathr Outdoors, a family of outdoor, camp and recreation brands committed to celebrating shared outdoor experiences, announced today the latest products from GCI Outdoor, ORCA, Klymit, Cascadia Vehicle Tents, WaterPORT and Rightlight Gear to be displayed at the Summer Outdoor Retailer Show in Denver, Colo, June 9 - 11. Highlighted by the first-of-its-kind GCI Outdoor LevrUp Canopy, which enables seamless one-person setup from outside the canopy frame, and the all-new ORCA 65-Quart Wheeled Cooler offering industry-leading 14-day ice retention, the collection will be available for preview at the Gathr Outdoors booth, #44005-UL.

A welcomed innovation in the outdoor canopy category, the GCI Outdoor LevrUp Canopy offers simple, solo setup and breakdown, all from outside the frame. Patent-pending technology locks the canopy in place without the user ever having to bend down and duck under the frame to secure. This thoughtful design decision addresses a common user pain point, delivering sideline parents, tailgaters, beachgoers and campers a seamless, time-saving solution unlike anything on the market.

"Our purpose is to make gathering together outdoors more comfortable and convenient," said Keith Bornholtz, CEO, Gathr Outdoors. "The GCI Outdoor LevrUp Canopy is a game changer for anyone who has struggled to set up or break down traditional canopy solutions. Our ORCA 65-Quart Wheeled Cooler and ultra lightweight and packable Klymit Maxfield 1 Tent are additional examples of innovations that make spending time together outdoors more enjoyable."
