It always begins with the first step. The nature, culture, and people you encounter beyond that point are what make a journey. As you spend more time with your gear during your travels, it becomes uniquely your own.
Driven by this sentiment, we travel from place to place like wandering merchants, sharing stories with the people we meet, and crafting each piece of gear with care. That is TORAYA EQUIPMENT, the "traveling travel gear maker."
While a bit earlier than in previous years, we will be holding our order exhibition at Circles again this year. Consequently, we expect the delivery dates for your items to be earlier as well.
※Products ordered will be scheduled for delivery in early March 2024. Please note that payment is required in advance.
You will be able to order various products tailored to different situations, including our signature 365 series long pants, shorts, and the 365 EXP, as well as travel shirts like the 247 DAYS / JUMP.
Additionally, you can place orders for our bag collections, which sparked the brand’s inception, such as the 196 JOURNEY travel backpack and the 105 SINGLE backpack for commuting as a journey.
If you love traveling, the mountains, cycling, or other outdoor activities, please come and visit us. We invite you to experience the products firsthand while talking with the makers about the mountains and our gear.
ABOUT TORAYA EQUIPMENT
Makers of Gear for Travel
We are makers of gear designed for travel. No matter the means, country, or location, even a stroll in the neighborhood or your daily commute is a part of the journey. By simply taking a different street than the one you usually use, you might find new encounters. Unbound by distance, place, or time, once you step outside, your journey has already begun. We carefully handcraft each piece of functional, playful travel gear after receiving your order, hoping to inspire you to take that first step with ease.
We also travel to various places across Japan to hold our exhibitions, just like a journey. We want you to experience the "encounters gained from stepping outside," which is the true pleasure of travel. We want to explain both the strengths and weaknesses of our gear so you can use it for a long time. With that intention, we continue the traditional Japanese practice of face-to-face sales as wandering merchants.
Conveying Japanese Travel Culture Through Craftsmanship
The gear we create draws significant inspiration from Japan's once-thriving travel culture and lifestyles. We apply ideas born from our own travel experiences to create things with our own hands. By building on small improvements, we continue to create "staples" meant to be used for a long time. We hope that by doing so, we can help pass on a piece of Japanese craftsmanship and travel culture.
Have a good journey, today and tomorrow. TORAYA EQUIPMENT
