Tsurugi Jacket

A masterwork of uncluttered presentation, yet unconditional performance.

Signifying ‘sword,’ TSURUGI is a simple yet striking vetement, whose blade-like efficiency is visible in the bold slash of its asymmetrical zipper. Our Tsurugi Jacket is a backcountry icon, an Apex-Award winning product preferred by ski guides from Grand Hirafu to Alyeska to Montana.

Now redesigned with our Täsmä precision-response fabric that variably adjusts to weather conditions, assuring the perfect balance of protection, breathability and comfort during activities that require unpredictable alternation between periods of high performance such as skiing and climbing (touring). Ideally suited to the Tsurugi’s core functionality.

Outdoor professionals praise its looser fit, stark minimalism, and lightweight, highly breathable protection. These are veterans who value the speed provided by frictionless, unadorned surfaces. Simply put, when you have a heavy dose of skills you need less equipment. And skills weigh nothing. If this is you, then Tsurugi is your weapon of choice.

The jacket is so light and soft you barely notice you're wearing a highly functional shell; ample room for snowboarding, hiking and the high exertion of short hikes and backcountry touring. This is the perfect piece for all season mountain wear, except for the coldest winter days in the Rockies. Enough room to layer up underneath without feeling constricted. The impressive design looks good on everyone without trying.

One bad ass piece

When I first got this piece I just thought it would be like any old shell... boy was I wrong. This thing is legit. I use it for ski touring in the winter and hiking/cycling in the summer. It manages to keep all the elements (wind/snow/rain) out while keeping you able to breath at the same time. I didn't realize the benefits of an asymmetrical zipper until now. It gets out of the way when doing an activity and the massive chest pocket it makes room for is great for keeping track of any items you may want on person. It is also extremely stylish and something different that stands out in the bloated world of high performance gear. I would highly recommend for anyone who wants a shell that is the only thing you need to bring on any outdoor adventure. Plus when paired with a solid mid-layer it is amazing for skiing and allows for total unrestricted range of movement. I got mine in seafoam green and absolutely love it, highly, highly recommend.

Great Jacket Great Service

This Jacket is absolutely perfect. I was looking for a lightweight but super protective shell for a recent trip to the Dolomites and happy I landed on the Tsurugi. Easy access to mid layer and bib pockets without exposing very much to the elements. I am 5’7 190lbs and went with the L which provided a looser fit over my base layer and sweater. Customer service was stellar and provided good advice very quick shipment. Highly recommend this jacket and the company!

simple & highly functional

I got this jacket to have something lighter for backcountry skiing adventures, but now I use it for everything. The fit is perfect for me (size Large, 6'1" 175 lbs). I love that the zipper doesn't mess with my harness when ice climbing. I've put it through a month of heavy use as a ski/alpine guide in Montana and it looks brand new. Photos don't do this thing justice, go try one out!
