Welly is for everyone that was afraid to fall down, fail, get bumped, get scratched and did it anyway. Welly is for the wellness in all of us, however that looks, and for being prepared for whatever comes our way. We wear our bandages like badges of honor for a life fully lived.
Hatched in Minnesota
Ya sure, you betcha, Welly is hatched in Minnesota with partners around the world.
We’re a group of adventurists and neat freaks. Dreamers and doers. Dads, moms, and dog moms. Gen Z, Millennials and eh…older than millennials. Horseback riders, runners, first timers and old pros.
We banded together and took a giant leap to make a product for the bleeders, the believers, the give it a try-ers.
Eric Ryan
Co-Creator and Co-Founder
Single dad and avid windsurfer, Eric, has a reason for all 25 items to be in his medicine cabinet, kitchen drawers, pool bags, backpacks and more. “Kids must bleed more around dad, right? And no one ever bleeds slowly or calmly around here, and honestly, that includes me. Having exactly what I need, where I need it is clutch to navigating dad life.”
Doug Stukenborg
CEO and Co-Founder
CEO and co-founder, Stuke, may be the busiest man in town. Basketball games with his kids, moving into a new house and oh yeah, launching a new company – he’s a man on the move. “I can’t pick my favorite Welly tins, it’s like choosing a favorite kid!” Doug means it. Keep an eye out for Doug walking down the street in a shirt made of our exploded plaid fabric bandage. The love is real.
Play Pals
Our furry friends are always ready to play. In the Welly World our pals join us in the office, on hikes or just chill with us at the end of a long day of adventure. However, sometimes these friends are a little over excited and can give us blisters from longer than expected hikes, or be the cause of scratches and ouchies. We’ve got a few Welly favorites to help you along the way.
Bleed responsibly
We’re on the path to giving back to the believers & the heroes who make our communities great.
