Bentonville, Arkansas Apparel Pioneers Stake Claim as Adventure Pants Capital of the World
Bentonville, April 1, 2025 - City of Bentonville apparel pioneers LIVSN Designs have staked their city’s claim as Adventure Pants Capital of the World™.
“It’s true that Bentonville has become the new Adventure Pants Capital of the World™,” says Andrew Gibbs-Dabney, CEO and founder of LIVSN Designs, “Over the past decade, we’ve been formally recognized by the United Nations Committee of Legwear Equity, consistently ranked top three in the global APQ (Adventure Pants Quotient), and were shortlisted for a Nobel Prize in Pocket Design.”
Industry insiders and discerning pants connoisseurs have used glowing words such as, “Definitely Pants,” “Real Pockets, Real People,” “Dependable leg holders,” and “Not Shein” in describing the pants sold in Bentonville. With an office right on the cusp of the all-consuming Walmart campus vortex, there is immediate access to the best pants any novice or expert pants wearer could hope to ride.
“This incredible distinction has come after years of intentional production work from LIVSN’s design team, countless hours of tests standing, squatting, and even briskly walking on trails, and, of course, countless others in our great community who share our values in knowing how to put their pants on one leg at a time,” said Abby Hollis, Director of Product and Sustainability, a lifelong pants advocate and avid avoider of Bentonville. “From the outset of our shared vision to transform our city as an adventure pants paradise unique from other destinations, the community rallied to ensure the Adventure Pants Capital of the World™ crown sat where it belonged right here in balmy Bentonville.”
LIVSN Designs has approximately 17 adventure pants iterations and dozens of other designs that enable people to follow their mantra to “own less, live more” whether around town or on the trail.
“Bentonville is the birthplace of a modern adventure pants resurgence, much like Venice in the Renaissance or London during the Black Plague,” said Jerry Jargonson, a newly arrived local with a $20k bike. “Sure, I haven’t actually hiked or biked yet, but I’ve got pants that could, and the idea of trail access helps me crawl from one day to the next.”
Everything you could want is theoretically enabled when you climb into a pair of certified adventure pants, whether it's a quick trip to an art museum, ride around town, or stopping for a quick drink to overly stimulate or numb as needed.
“Scientists have proven a direct correlation between human exposure to outdoor spaces and well-being—and adventure pants are the bridge between these worlds,” confided Gibbs-Dabney one night at a mandatory employee campfire with a wild glint in his eye. “Just as LIVSN steadily secured the Adventure Pants Capital of the World™ title for Bentonville, so too shall other product categories fall beneath our banner. We’ve redefined adventure pants, but this is just the beginning.”
An unnamed source reports that employee requests to return to their families—or at least their tents—during this stirring speech were denied.
