With the release of the live-action adaptation of One Piece, fans are excited to see their favorite characters come to life. Just like the distinct personalities of the characters, these outdoor brands offer unique features that enhance your outdoor experience and showcase their individual style and technology.

RAB

RAB was founded by climber Rab Carrington in 1981. This young British brand is rapidly growing and has won numerous international awards for its lightweight, high-altitude gear. RAB doesn't compromise on style over substance and insists on using the best materials, such as premium 96% pure white goose down from the Nordic region and ultra-soft Pertex fabrics. RAB is famous for its extremely lightweight down and water-resistant fabrics, especially in the outdoor mountaineering field. RAB's down jackets are a regular on the down jacket rankings and are beloved by climbers and outdoor enthusiasts worldwide. British expeditions to Mount Everest, the North and South Poles, and many mountain rescue teams have all selected RAB equipment because they can't find anything better than RAB.

Millet

Millet is a French brand founded in 1921. Its product line includes clothing, footwear, backpacks, sleeping bags, hats, gloves, ropes, and other outdoor equipment. Millet provided gear for the French expedition to climb the Himalayas in 1950. With their determination and excellent equipment, they successfully reached the summit of Annapurna, the first peak over 8,000 meters climbed by humans. In May 2001, Millet's technical advisor Marco Siffredi snowboarded down the Norton Couloir on the north face of Mount Everest, becoming the first person to snowboard the entire distance from the summit.

SALEWA

SALEWA, established in Germany in 1935, is a well-known European outdoor sport brand. SA stands for Saddler, LE for Leather, and WA for Wares. Josef Liebhant, the then-president of the German Horse Association, registered a company that primarily produced equestrian equipment and leather goods to provide high-quality equipment for equestrian enthusiasts. Today, SALEWA is a dynamic mountaineering brand dedicated to providing creative and high-quality equipment for mountaineers and outdoor enthusiasts, even for high-altitude climbing experiences. Its product range includes backpacks, equipment, shoes, and clothing, all featuring strong functionality.

Berghaus

Berghaus is an old British outdoor clothing brand founded in 1966 by Chris Bonington and another outdoor enthusiast from Newcastle upon Tyne. They opened an outdoor equipment company, LD Mountain Centre, and with the addition of Peter Lockey and Gordon Davison, the company quickly established a good reputation in the industry. Due to the company importing a large amount of outdoor products for distribution in the UK, the name Berghaus was born out of business needs. Berghaus mainly designs and produces mountaineering backpacks, footwear, and clothing. In 2006, Berghaus received the Queen's Award for Enterprise in recognition of its achievements in product innovation, the most valuable business award in the UK.

Salomon

Salomon was founded in France in 1947 and designs and manufactures high-end professional shoes, clothing, backpacks, and various skiing equipment. Salomon is famous worldwide for its skiing products and is the first choice of many Olympic champions. Salomon has rich experience in manufacturing outdoor cross-country and hiking shoes and has created many patents in over 10 years, leading people into a new era of outdoor sports.
