Travis is an artist, father, trail runner, and ultrarunner whose work with brands like the North Face and Roark has crafted a life that aligns his creative pursuits and his love of the trails. His limited run with the NorthFace Vectiv launch back in 2021 put Travis on the map with brands and that led to his current work with Roark and the Far Out Out Far line that he recently did with the adventure lifestyle brand.
