Recon's Mantra:

At Recon, we believe that instant information, delivered in the right context, can set us free and help us fulfill our true potential. We don’t believe in compromises.

We design our products to be safe, elegant, well-balanced, and incredibly easy to use. Nothing is more important to us. Sports are a great proving ground, pushing our product designs to the limit in every respect.

We carry out all aspects of product development and design in-house, from concept to final production. It’s a complex and highly multidisciplinary effort, but we believe end-to-end control of the process helps us stay true to our core principles.

Our philosophy is to live the product. Every employee is also a user. We all live and breathe to drive the company’s vision, and we never get tired of breaking new ground.
