Founded by Runners

Outdoor Verify was founded by a group of runners wanting to provide a clear message to others in our community we pass by on trails, sidewalks and streets that we are safely vaccinated. Free from masks with CDC guidance, we pondered how others would know. Now vaccinated and safe to be around yet without a way to let others in our community see.

Outdoor Verify is our way to let others know that it’s safe once again to be outdoors. And a way for us to give back to our communities.

What We Do

We verify those that want to let others know they are free to roam, return to the trails, be in the bleachers, peddle on by with a simple visual sign — via hat, pin, buff — that we are VERIFIED to safely be mask free in the great OUTDOORS.

Outdoor Verify provides an open platform to simply and safely verify that those receiving merchandise with the Outdoor Verify logo have provided proof of vaccination.

What We Don't Do

Outdoor Verify does not confirm authentication of user provided personal information or vaccination records.
