About 3RD ROCK
About us
We are an organic & recycled climbwear brand designing clothes for fun filled adventurous lives. Our speciality is movement inspired design with unique and innovative cuts that provide better movement & comfort.
How did we start?
3RD ROCK was founded in 2010 by Jessica Mor, a certified fashion designer & pattern cutter. 3RD ROCK is a family run business based in the Peak District. Recently a triple-threat, Guy and Jessica are now splitting their time between work and taking care of their baby, Oren.
After witnessing the negative sides of the industry - environmental abuses, human rights violation, poverty & illness - Jess made it her personal mission to create an alternative type of clothing brand and to make a difference.
"Being a fashion designer & a rock climber, the road was clear as to how to go about it, so I started 3RD ROCK - an eco activewear brand for Climbers, Yogis and all active people out there."
As a certified designer and pattern cutter, she’s well prepared to redefine the outdoor style through what she calls ‘climbwear’ - a 3RD ROCK signature, clothes made specifically for rock climbing.
