Lucas Hergert

From a young age, I’ve been driven by a passion for creating — combining hands-on craftsmanship with problem-solving to design products that make a real difference. As an Industrial Designer and Founder of Larrikin Outdoors, I’ve channeled that passion into developing innovative, modular camping storage solutions tailored for small SUVs. With a strong foundation in product design and years of experience in the outdoor recreation industry, I’ve built a system that prioritizes functionality, versatility, and ease of use. The result is a lightweight, adaptable setup that enhances convenience for campers, adventurers, and weekend explorers alike. My background extends beyond design. Seven years of competitive kayaking instilled a deep work ethic and resilience — qualities that continue to drive my approach to product development and business leadership. Having worked in outdoor equipment retail alongside earning my Industrial Design degree, I’ve gained valuable insight into both user needs and market demands. Today, I’m focused on delivering practical, user-focused solutions that simplify the outdoor experience — empowering more people to get out there and explore with less hassle and more freedom.
