Replogle World Globes

The World’s Most Trusted Name in Globes

Since Luther Replogle founded the company in 1930 with a vision to bring "a globe in every home," Replogle Globes has remained the unrivaled leader in globe manufacturing. Known for blending old-world craftsmanship with modern cartographic accuracy, a Replogle globe is an investment in quality.

Our curated Replogle collection covers the entire spectrum of geography. Discover the prestigious Heirloom Collection, featuring handcrafted floor models with hand-applied maps, or explore our durable Student Series, perfect for the classroom. Whether you are looking for the tactile experience of their signature Raised Relief mountains or the ambient glow of an illuminated stand, Replogle offers a style for every explorer.

What Makes a Replogle Globe Unique?

The Signature "Raised Relief"
Replogle is famous for popularizing Raised Relief technology. On most non-illuminated models, you can physically feel the mountains rising from the surface of the globe. This tactile feature provides a 3D understanding of the Earth's terrain, making the Himalayas and Andes more than just lines on a map.

The Heirloom Collection
For those seeking the ultimate statement piece, the Replogle Heirloom Collection represents the pinnacle of globe making. These large-format floor globes (20-inch and 32-inch) are often handcrafted. The maps are hand-cut and hand-applied to the sphere by skilled artisans, ensuring perfect alignment and a finish that mass-produced models cannot match.

Up-to-Date Accuracy
One of the most common questions we receive is about accuracy. Replogle maintains a dedicated cartography department that tracks political changes worldwide. We ensure that our inventory reflects the most current version of the Replogle map, so you can trust your globe as a reliable reference tool.

Common Questions About Replogle Globes

Find answers to common questions about our products and services.

Replogle is an American company based near Chicago. Many of their high-end models, specifically those in the Heirloom Collection, are still handcrafted in the USA. Some desktop and component parts are sourced globally to maintain affordability while adhering to strict US quality standards.

You cannot "peel" the map off an existing globe, but Replogle offers a unique "Updatable Globe Program." If you register your globe, you may be eligible to purchase a replacement ball (sphere) at a discounted rate when the world map changes significantly.

Replogle globes are excellent historical markers. The easiest way to date a vintage globe is by looking for specific country names that no longer exist, such as "USSR" (pre-1991), "Zaire" (pre-1997), or "Rhodesia" (pre-1980). Our modern collection, of course, features current geography.

Replogle holds the exclusive license to produce globes designed by the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation. These models feature stands based on the architect's famous furniture sketches and geometric principles, combining geography with mid-century modern art.
