Additional Info

Leda pants, a cult favorite for the past fifteen years, are one of the first pieces of women-specific climbing clothes made. Modeled on, and named for, the favorite climbing pants of a beautiful girl Verve founder Christian Griffith met in a climbing gym, these pants are tough enough to stand up to sharp rock, flexible enough for morning yoga, and soft enough to curl up in. The simple design focuses on superior fit and has no pockets or side seams while the extra stretchy fabric guards the perfect shape of this pant even in heavy use.

A great blending of fit, function and fabric, the Verve Leda pant has become a timeless silhouette which ages uniformly and gracefully. This is crucial: as the Leda transcends seasonal styles, you'll find yourself loving and living in the Leda pant for a dozen years to come. In it, you'll find an intimacy of details, and an evocative awakening of emotions; it dovetails into what is important in your life and adds a kind of simplicity that makes sense.

Product Review: Verve Leda Pant

Women's Verve Brand Story

MEET VERVE: Behind the Scenes Christian Griffith

At Vickerey, we've carried Verve clothing for over a decade. We love the classy and functional fit, the durable fabric, and the way it's still handsewn by local seamstresses. And, we love the eccentric, enigmatic man behind Verve: Christian Griffith, climber and designer extraordinaire. Join us for this two-part series that focuses on the man behind the brand, and the wonderful climbing, yoga, and lifestyle clothes he creates.

Read about Verve and founder Christian Griffith on our Blog - Part 1 and Part 2

"Outside my close circle of friends there was almost no way of knowing at a glance who shared not only my love of climbing, but also my way of being. This was the feeling that gave rise to the idea for Verve, the clothing company I started in 1988. Since then, I have tried very hard to stick to a few key values that have not only preserved the physical quality of Verve clothing, but hopefully as well, their fundamental role in helping the people that wear them find their own place in the world.", Christian Griffith

The Verve clothing company is not only committed to producing exceptional products, but to supporting grassroots, sustainable business practices. While outsourcing is commonplace in the apparel industry, Verve is keeping it local. They have a group of professional seamstresses who work from home, affectionately called the granny sewing force. Many of these seamstresses left their own countries because of war or its aftermath and made their way to the US years ago. Verve founder Christian Griffith says, "With changes in scale, priorities, and the economy, most of that manufacturing was moved overseas, leaving these highly skilled, dedicated women with little or no means to make a living." Flip over the care label to see the initials of the nice granny who poured her passion into your next pair of Leda pants.
