Chain · Heritage, outdoor and gorpcore

Tiso has been fitting Scotland out for the hills since 1962, when Graham and Maude Tiso started trading from the back room of a boat shop in Edinburgh before moving to their own premises nearby. The business grew into a family-run chain now 14 shops strong, and it was Tiso that pioneered the 'Outdoor Experience' concept: stores built with a waterproof testing cabinet, a boot test path and a stove test area, so gear got tried before it got bought. That heritage and outdoor spirit still shapes the edit today, with kit and clothing for hiking, climbing, cycling, skiing and camping. Alongside big outdoor names, the rails bring in specialist labels like 8bplus, Aku, Dynafit, ECCO and Deuter, giving the range real gorpcore credentials for anyone kitting out for the Scottish hills or just dressing like they might.
