NANGA

Founded in 1941 by Akira Yokota, NANGA creates outdoor equipment specifically designed to withstand and conquer extreme weather conditions. The company, based in Japan, draws inspiration from Nanga Parbat, a Himalayan peak known as the “king of mountains”, and takes pride in handcrafting high-quality garments, essential for alpine adventures, and stylish accessories. NANGA’s designs prioritize simplicity, with clean lines, curved silhouettes, and a muted color palette defining each piece. The brand uses premium down sourced from Europe, which is carefully cleaned and processed at Japan’s top down refinery before being hand-stitched into items such as lightweight jackets, compressible puffer pants, and durable ripstop nylon booties. NANGA’s focus on comfort and practicality showcases the best of Japanese craftsmanship and utilitarianism, resulting in timeless and reliable products.
