The development of Archaeopteryx:

Archaeopteryx, formerly known as RockSolid, was founded by DaveLane and JeremyGuard. Its earliest product is climbing equipment, which is designed and produced by hot pressing technology and has become one of the most popular products of Arc'teryx.

In the second year of the company's operation, along with the company's expansion, Arc'teryx launched Bora series backpacks which also adopt Vapor technology. 1996 Arc'teryx was authorized by WLGore to use GORE-TEX fabric and began to produce its brand-new outdoor technical clothing series.

The name and trademark pattern of Arc'teryx come from the earliest bird archaeopteryx known to mankind. The pattern image is based on the "HMN 1880 Berlin specimen" found in Berlin around1880, which is the most complete archaeopteryx fossil so far.

Therefore, the Arc'teryx brand is generally called Archaeopteryx in Chinese, commonly known as "bird", "bird" or "Canadian bird" to distinguish it from another American brand, the American bird, which uses the trademark of bird pattern.
