Since its creation, the brand has not stopped growing, while remaining faithful to its initial values: listening, pragmatism, preservation of health … without compromise!
PRAGMATISM
Pragmatic (n.m.): person capable of adapting to the constraints of reality who favors the effectiveness of the practice over theoretical considerations.
For CiLAO, it’s not just a definition. This is both our ambition and our know-how. Our entire range is designed without artifice or concession. We aim for comfort and optimal equipment for each practice. No more no less. Because if weight is often a factor of success, it is by preserving the man that we achieve performance.
HEALTH THROUGH BIOMECHANICS
Since its creation in 2003, the purpose of CILAO is the creation and manufacture of products dedicated to sports performance that adapt as closely as possible to the mechanisms and morphology of everyone.
It is this detail requirement that makes the difference.
In a race, every gram, every superfluous gesture has its importance. But we also strive to ensure that our bags offer unequaled comfort to preserve the wearer. Because less fatigue, less stress makes all the difference on the last meters.
NO CONCESSIONS
Like their founder, CiLAO products are uncompromising. Comfort to preserve the wearer in the long term as in the distance, robustness for flawless security, minimalist equipment for an optimized weight…
We have also chosen to preserve the Made in France since our beginnings. Because designing, testing and manufacturing our products here in Annecy seems to us the best way to guarantee full traceability, and beyond that, flawless quality. It is both an ethical commitment, a vision of the world, a desire to reduce the ecological footprint of our bags… but it is also to preserve real flexibility in our manufacturing and a means of guaranteeing reactivity which is dear to us in the development of prototypes and the production of small specific series.
