Meet Laek: From Minaret Rebrand to Symmetry & Adventure in Every Environment

We're excited to introduce Laek (formerly Minaret), founded by Jordan with a mission to inspire people to venture outdoors and embrace new experiences. Originally named after the majestic Minaret mountains in Sierra Nevada Range renowned for breathtaking jagged peaks, the name was often confused with the Islamic term "minaret," leading to difficulty in searches and recall—prompting Jordan's months of thinking and research for a name related to depths, lengths, distances, locations, and diverse environments where their products are made for. Discovering "lake" was perfect but needed to be catchy, short, memorable, and evoke emotion, he created "laek" where the "a" and "e" reflect one another, creating symmetry and intrigue—a unique spelling for a unique brand built for every continent and environment, in mountains and deserts, on plains, and near seashores, proving their gear designed for all conditions uses premium, sustainable materials of the highest quality, building sustainably and ethically made gear that withstands the test of time with products that tell stories leading to more stories being created and shared.

Minaret Rebrand & Name Change

On every continent and in every kind of environment—in mountains and deserts, on plains, and near seashores. Varying greatly in both size and depth. Temperature, light, precipitation, and wind are contributing factors to the outcome. This is Laek, and these are the places we're built for.

What Is the Reason Behind the Rebrand?

Our mission at Minaret is to inspire people to venture outdoors and embrace new experiences. The brand's name was initially inspired by the majestic Minaret mountains in the Sierra Nevada Range, which are renowned for their breathtaking jagged peaks. Unfortunately, the name was often associated with the Islamic term "minaret," which was not the intended meaning. This led to confusion and difficulty in searches and recall, creating an experience that could have been better for our customers.

A Unique Name for Where the Brand Is Heading

Along with this factor, a unique name was necessary to better reflect where the brand is heading and our values. While our vision remains the same, our products are evolving, and we are excited to introduce our new brand name.

Why the Name Laek?

I wanted the name to be related to words like depths, lengths, distances, locations, and diverse environments. Ultimately, those are the places our products are made for and the adventures we hope our customers enjoy. After months of thinking and research, I thought "lake" was the perfect word to describe those things, but it just didn't feel quite right for the unique brand we're creating.

Catchy, Short, Memorable, Evoke Emotion

It needed to be catchy, short, memorable, and evoke emotion when seen. I believe that the word "laek" accomplished just that. What immediately stood out about the word when written out is how the "a" and the "e" reflect one another, creating a level of symmetry and intrigue. A unique spelling for a unique brand.

Designed for All Conditions

To be clear, while our products thrive in and around lakes, our gear is designed to be used in all conditions, making it perfect for any environment.
