Since 1958, Snow Peak has made Japanese-designed, lifetime-guaranteed outdoor products. Snow Peak’s core mission is to create restorative experiences in nature through legacy-grade gear and apparel.

Snow Peak’s name originates from the famous Japanese mountain, Tanigawa. Mount Tanigawa is known worldwide not only for the natural beauty of its noble peaks but also for the numbers that have failed while attempting to reach its glorious summit.

Fueled by the booming national interest in auto-camping sweeping across Japan in the 1980s, Snow Peak released a series of radically innovative products which focused on quality, functionality, timeless durability and considered design.

Starting off with the Snow Peak Folding Low Chair in Khaki, we see one of the fundamental pieces of a camping trip that elevates it beyond just sleeping rough in the woods. 

The Low Chair is ideal for camping adventures, featuring an aluminum folding frame and a heavy-duty canvas seat fabric, with bamboo armrests. This functional piece also features the classic Snow Peak branding for the final touches.

Nothing quite makes the difference as much as having a comfortable sleeping experience when out on a camping trip, and Snow Peak have it covered.

The Snow Peak Entry Sleeping Bag weighs only 3.7 lbs (1.7kg), making it a lightweight carry that features a super handy inside pocket and all packs down into a handy little pillow shape.
