Start
We are looking for the best design for a short-sleeve T-shirt to form the basis for a Biosphere Expeditions clothing range, which will be sold exclusively by Snowgum and part of whose proceeds will be used to support Biosphere Expeditions’ conservation projects across the globe.
Partners
Biosphere Expeditions is an award-winning, non-profit-making organisation offering hands-on wildlife conservation expeditions as an adventure with a purpose for everyone. Our projects are not tours, photographic safaris or excursions, but genuine wildlife expeditions placing ordinary people with no research experience alongside scientists who are at the forefront of conservation work. Having said that, our expeditions are not at all about playing the primitive, neither are we a military style 'boot-camp'. We get the best out of our expedition teams by making them comfortable, safe and well fed. Our expeditions are open to all, there are no special skills or fitness required to join and there are no age limits whatsoever. Our expedition team members are people from all walks of life, of all ages, looking for an adventure with a conscience and a sense of purpose.
Snowgum began designing and producing outdoor clothing and equipment in 1974. For over 34 years their gear has been the essential traveller's companion - from the Himalayas to the Sahara, across the Outback, up the Amazon and down the Nile - visiting every corner of the planet. As they travelled, Snowgum's products evolved. Today, you're as likely to see Snowgum outdoor clothing and equipment on Sydney Harbour daytrippers, London Tube commuters or visitors enjoying the Piazzas of Rome, as on serious trekkers in Nepal or Machu Picchu - their range of Lifestyle Climate Control Clothing is constantly growing to meet the demands of active lifestyles everywhere.
