This dream could become reality thanks to a surprising innovation in the field of hiking equipment.
Exoskeletons have long fascinated, moving from science fiction to an accessible reality. But how far can this technology go to transform our daily activities?

Motorized pants for hiking
Arc'Teryx and Skip, two American companies, took on an ambitious challenge in 2020: to design hiking pants equipped with an exoskeleton. This project, called Mo/Go, aims to offer continuous assistance and increased safety to hikers.
The Mo/Go, meaning “mountain goat”, aims to make its wearer as agile as a mountain goat. Although the user does not become a true mountain animal, he or she benefits from valuable assistance in climbing faster and reducing the risk of injury.

High-precision technologies
After four years of development, the Mo/Go is made with lightweight materials such as carbon fiber, minimizing additional weight for the user. It integrates a sensor capable of predicting movements to accompany them without constraining them.
Each leg has a motor that provides the necessary support, making the Mo/Go as powerful as it is comfortable. While other companies like Hypershell have attempted similar projects, Skip and Arc'Teryx's model stands out for its sophistication.

Applications and limitations
With a battery life of 3 hours and a weight of about 3 kg, the Mo/Go is aimed at experienced guides and walkers rather than amateur hikers. Despite its high price, it is possible to rent it by the day in some parts of the United States and Canada.
This rental availability proves the functionality of the device. However, it remains limited for extreme expeditions such as climbing Everest, where higher performance would be required.
- Increased safety when hiking
- Reduced risk of injury
- Accessibility through rental
