Vivida is a pioneering adventure & wellbeing lifestyle brand powered by products for a life well-lived. A life connected to adventure, nature, others and oneself. Every Vivida design — whether outerwear, swimwear or sleep masks — bridges technical & functional with luxury, creativity & beauty. With a name & purpose derived from 'Viva la Vida' (live life in Spanish), the Vivida Lifestyle was initially created as a purely passion-driven project, serving as a reminder and daily inspiration to live life to the fullest. Vivida was born from this concept of lifestyle rather than a lifestyle created from product. Unlike many other brands – Nike, Patagonia, etc. that began with a shoe, piton or other consumer need illuminated and then expanded upon, Vivida has evolved from a place quite the opposite, which is our strength and our unique attribute. Today, this passion project has evolved into a movement that touches nearly every corner of the world with award-winning eco-chic outerwear, waterwear and adventure gear, and unmistakable energy. With nature, community & connection at the forefront of every aspect of the Vivida Lifestyle, we can proudly say we exist for you; the adventurers, the dreamers, the thinkers, and the doers. We hope to enable & enlighten your journey wherever it may lead.
