Our Story
Hello and welcome to the world of Beans & Sploot!
The person (and dog) behind Beans & Sploot
My name is Secilia and I am the founder of Beans & Sploot. For many years I have done a lot of hiking and one of the reasons that my medium poodle Tillmann finally enriched my life was because I wanted a hiking buddy who was always up for adventures. Tillmann is the happiest, craziest little companion I could have wished for, and he loves the endless supply of sticks in the forest.
The idea to start Beans & Sploot came to me when I realised that Tillmann was always cold when he got wet. I love wool because it's self cleaning and warm even when wet, so I was almost frenetically searching for a wool overall for Tillmann, but couldn't find any. Since I also suddenly needed to carry stuff for both of us, I became interested in lightweight hiking. In an equally frenetic manner I searched for a lightweight rain overall, but couldn't find that either. The last resort was to make the things I needed myself.
One year earlier I had became unemployed because of an untreatable work injury. Beans & Sploot is my way back and hopefully my road to a pain free life. It has been one hell of a hard, fun and enlightening journey bringing Beans & Sploot to life, and I am so happy to now be offering you the products I have been missing myself.
