Currently, the brand has in its offer over 20 product categories, including climbing gear, trekking poles, headlamps, crampons and ice axes, freeride skis, technical and trail running apparel, and gloves. In 2018, Black Diamond extended their collection by a new category – climbing shoes – that is constantly being developed. Due to their wide range of products, the brand may boast a very comprehensive offer addressed to outdoor enthusiasts.

The company’s history started when an 18-years-old climber, Yvon Chouinard, started to manually blacksmith his own pitons with a hammer and an anvil and then sold them from the boot of his car. Soon his gear became popular among climbers. In 1989, the original company, called Chouinard Equipment, was transformed into the well-known Black Diamond. The company and its history have had a significant impact on development of climbing round the world – from sport climbing and bouldering to trad climbing.
