How The Original Tumok was invented

Our Story

The Original Tumok was founded by our family for all outdoor

enthusiasts looking for a way to enjoy nature in comfort. 


Our inventor and founder, Randy, initially had the idea to create the Tumok for his brother Dane to be able to continue enjoying the outdoors like he

loved to do.


Dane was a star athlete growing up, lettering in both football and

baseball. Dane and Randy were lucky enough to grow up in Utah,

which exposed them from an early age to the outdoors and really

instilled a love and appreciation for nature. If Dane wasn't on the

field, he was in the mountains and Randy was right there with his

big brother. 


After a knee injury took Dane off the field, he continued to do what he could to stay active. Dane also loved to help people, and because pursuing a career as a professional athlete was out of the question, Dane decided to become a nurse. Dane enjoyed a fulfilling career as a nurse, until another obstacle was placed before him. 


Dane was diagnosed with Lewy Body dementia, which attacked his body making it more difficult for him to move around and be as active as he used to be.


Still, Randy wanted his big brother to enjoy the outdoors like they both loved to do, so he would take Dane snowshoeing or cross-country skiing during the winter or hiking during the summer at least three times a week. Randy noticed that it was taking Dane much longer to get ready, and that Dane could not stay out in the mountains as long as he used to because of his knee and because of the neurological disease he was dealing with. 


Randy decided he was going to do something about it to help his brother enjoy nature longer. After extensive research, he was not able to find a viable

solution. So, he decided to make something himself. After several different trials and prototypes Randy came up with the Tumok; an essential compact portable chair for outdoor junkies.


A few years later, Sam joined the family and saw what Randy had

created and loved the idea and the story behind the Tumok and felt like it should be available to everyone. Together, the family started working towards bringing Randy’s creation and vision to fruition so that the world could enjoy

it like Randy had envisioned for his brother Dane.


The team continued to refine The Original Tumok and find innovative ways to

improve the design to ensure that a quality product, along with the best service possible is provided to our customers.
