the use of polyurethane, making it lightweight and eliminating deterioration by aging, which is a characteristic of
polyurethane.

city.

All Direction Stretch Hike Shirt
Wearing a buttoned shirt for trekking is not only for the style but must also be for practicality.
On days with strong sun, a sunburn can be a huge problem letting many people wear long sleeves even when the temperature
is high. But shirts are airy and can very well provide protection against the sun. Standing its collar enables even a
neck protection against the sun as well.
The shirt is also easier to control temperature and provides instant ventilation when it’s hot by unbuttoning the front
entirely. And its buttons are snap buttons for easy opening and closing.
Plus, a shirt can be an alternative to a windshell jacket when the moderate wind blows when on the ridgeline. The shirt
allows leaving windshell jacket out to pack lighter on some days.
A shirt provides protection against sunlight and wind while enabling an easy temperature control, so mountain
exploration can continue stress-free without taking on and off the shirt.
The material, SOLOTEX, is used. SOLOTEX’s fibers have a spring-like spiral molecular structure which has very high
stretchability, thus does not interfere with body movement. And it also has high shape recovery that does not wrinkle
even if it gets stuffed into the backpack.
Slightly loose box silhouette to improve airiness and has sizing that can be worn over the insulation wear when it is
cold.
A large zipper pocket on the chest is a size that can fit a map and is useful for storing what you want with immediate
access.

PERTEX SHIELDAIR Fast Shell Jacket
Three-layer rainwear that is waterproof and breathable. In addition to the moisture permeability of conventional outdoor
rainwear that releases the humidity outside, it has a breathability that physically allows air to pass through, making
this jacket the most unstuffy rainwear by far.
The jacket was developed under the theme of “rainwear that can be worn in all weathers,” and uses PERTEX SHIELDAIR with
excellent breathability that makes it possible to be an alternative to a windshell when it’s sunny.
Now a rainwear that could end up unused if no rain can be used as an active wear in any weather conditions.
The fabric is a very soft, supple, and thin three-layer material with 12 denier outer fabric and 7 denier lining, which
does not get in the way during intense exercise and suitable for trail running.
This jacket not only offers breathability, but also contributes a lot to weight reduction for being lightweight for a
three-layer shell with 210g (size L).
Plus, this rainwear doing two roles by also acting as an alternative to windshell jackets eliminates other active wears
and pack light.
One thing to note is that it trades off heat retention for high breathability. With its sizing that gives the body a
little more room to layer, the jacket can still be worn in a wide range of temperature depending on how it’s layered.
This is one very versatile item that performs according to users’ expectations.

WF Light T-shirt
T-shirt made of SOLOTEX Waffle material with excellent stretchability, sweat absorption and quick-drying.

drops and suitable to wear throughout three seasons.
The uneven surface of the waffle material does not stick to the skin even if worn alone, and its high sweat absorption
and quick-drying properties quickly diffuse sweat and keep dry.

Location
Mt. Hinata
Located in Hokuto City, Yamanashi Prefecture, this mountain is 1,660 meters above sea level on the avant-garde peak of
the Southern Alps.
A forest belt continues to the summit, and the forest of broad-leaved and coniferous trees is pleasant for hiking.
The summit is covered with trees and have no view, but the scenery completely changes when Gangahara, just west of the
summit, is reached.
Its panoramic view of the white sand is called "the beach in the sky".
The road just before getting to Gangahara gives the illusion of the moment getting out to the tropical beach.
The view of Mt. Kaikomagatake and Mt. Yatsugatake from the beach is the attraction of Mt. Hinata like no other.
Right from the Oshirakawa Valley parking lot, which is the trailhead, there is a campsite where people can camp before
and after climbing. People can also enjoy a walk in the Oshirakawa Valley.
There is also a shared taxi, MOUNTAIN TAXI, that connects JR Kobuchizawa Station to the trailhead and is easy to access
by public transportation.
