The Nival story

The story of Nival

What is the Nival spirit?

Here at Nival, everything revolves around climbing. Our daily life revolves around climbing and offering you products that suit you.

We are dedicated to the development of climbing by organizing charity events. We introduce climbing to countries where the discipline is still considered a new sport because it all started there.

Our inspirations

The big brands showed us the way forward. They propelled climbing to the forefront and made this incredible discipline known to as many people as possible.

We have no trouble telling you that we take inspiration from the greatest to offer you the best. We are the new generation of responsible brands. Our vision of the future is firmly anchored in sustainable development.

The origins of Nival

It all started with a t-shirt designed for the filming of a documentary about climbing in Vietnam, Climbing In Huu Lung , in 2020.

Nival was originally created by a French climber (one of the future co-founders of Côté Bloc) to bring together communities and promote climbing in Vietnam.

Nival worked by making films, creating the community group Vietnam Climbing Circle , organizing events and getting published in several local media.

It was a first project to create chalk bags from scraps of jackets that encouraged its founder to make Nival a responsible climbing brand.

Today, Nival is developing in France, maturing its ideas and philosophy to share the best possible experience with you.

The Nival x Côté Bloc ecosystem

Nival, the new generation brand, offers you eco-responsible technical pants for climbing with technicality and comfort.

We are committed to promoting sustainable climbing, using recycled materials and supporting our Nival Charity program.

On the other hand, Côté Bloc , our YouTube channel dedicated to climbing, promotes the practice and brings together a passionate community of climbers since 2021.

Our goal is to share our love for climbing through authentic, inspiring and educational content.

Together, Nival and Côté Bloc form a dynamic duo, combining technical expertise and a passion for climbing.

We invite you to join our adventure and share with us unforgettable moments at the top of the mountains and discover our YouTube channel !
