Marker was founded in 1952 in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany, by Hannes Marker, inventor of the first safety ski bindings, and has stood for safety and innovation in skiing ever since.

Today, Marker's head office is located in Penzberg, Bavaria. As a key player in the winter sports sector, the brand is well aware of its responsibility to act sustainably. Marker therefore strives to save as many resources as possible during the various production stages and is constantly looking for new ways to do this even better.
