Coleman
The company began life at the turn of the twentieth century when W. C. Coleman was taking his usual route home from work and spotted a brightly glowing lamp in a shop window. W. C. Coleman suffered from poor eyesight and struggled to read under the flickering gas lamps of the time. As such, he was a little more than intrigued by the bright light emitted by this lamp and set to work to learn as much about it as possible. Over a century later, the Coleman name has grown to be one of the best loved brands on market and is beloved by outdoor types around the globe.
