【NANGA Custom】 Why I Want to Wear a Lightweight Down Jacket with a Short Boxy Silhouette That Feels Just Like a Sleeping Bag!

As soon as you start to notice the chill in the morning and evening, it's time to bring out your winter outerwear. The piece customized by TOKYO CRAFTS for NANGA features a voluminous down that is still sleek with its short boxy silhouette. Keep an eye on this "wearable sleeping bag" that you’ll want to wear from camping to the city.

In the season of bonfires, a reliable piece

As autumn deepens, the chill after sunset at the campsite becomes a concern. In such a season, you want to check out the "NANGA Exclusive Mountain Lodge Down Hoodie Jacket" by TOKYO CRAFTS and NANGA.

The base is from NANGA's Mountain Lodge series. It is tailored to be worn not only for outdoor activities but also during the journey to the campsite and in everyday life.

Warmth befitting the name "wearable sleeping bag"

This "NANGA Exclusive Mountain Lodge Down Hoodie Jacket" is based on the popular Mountain Lodge series from NANGA. While maintaining its lightness, the amount of down has been increased to add volume.

It uses 160g of 650FP (fill power = a measure of the down's loftiness, with larger numbers indicating greater warmth) recycled down for the insulation. Because it's created in collaboration with NANGA, which has expertise in sleeping bag creation, the concept of a wearable sleeping bag is quite convincing. The high collar and hood cover the neck well, making it seem comfortable enough to spend time by the bonfire at night without hunching your shoulders.

Short length × wide body width that blends in with the city

When it comes to down jackets, one might be concerned about the volume, but this piece features a shorter length and a boxy silhouette that provides ample room in the body. It offers a balanced way to wear voluminous down comfortably.

Under the armpits, the three-dimensional cut allows for easy arm movement. It seems to excel in situations that require big arm movements, such as setting up a tent or loading and unloading gear. By tightening the drawcord at the hem, it can be styled into a rounded silhouette, adding a touch of fashion. Available in two colors, black and beige, it matches not only camping wear but also casual outings and school runs on weekends.

Store it in the dedicated case for your winter camping companion

What’s even more appealing is the specially designed storage case that resembles a sleeping bag. It is made from the same fabric as the jacket, allowing for compact storage when not in use.

Instead of preparing special cold-weather clothing for camping, you can simply bring your favorite outfit that you usually wear right to the field. If you can use it this way, outdoor winter activities will feel much lighter.
