Descente Skiwear

The history of Descente began with the opening in 1935 of the first small shop in the Japanese city of Osaka. Takeo Ishimoto, the owner of the store, offered customers sportswear and related equipment made by himself. Takeo's main idea was to create the best ski jacket in the world.

Translated from French, the word "descente" means "descent", "ramp" or "slope". A well-chosen name and fruitful cooperation with the Olympic Committee helped the small shop to become one of the most recognizable brands among ski clothing manufacturers.

Peculiarities
From 1949 to the present day, the main task of the company is to satisfy all requirements for sportswear. Modeling of suits is carried out taking into account the opinion of professional athletes. High-quality ski clothing should be comfortable and visually attractive. That is why athletes from the teams of Spain, Switzerland and Canada perform in Descente clothing.



The main advantage of Descente is the high functionality of clothing. Despite the fact that the main consumers are sports professionals, the company's product range includes clothing made for non-professional amateurs. However, such costumes are also made taking into account the requirements of consumers.


High-quality ski clothing is distinguished by:
- Perfectly taped seams.
- The presence of additional ventilation.
- A hood that can be easily reduced with a drawstring to the desired volume, and if necessary, removed.
- The presence of clamps on the cuffs of the sleeves.



Even at the design stage of pants, jackets and overalls, anatomical features are taken into account, which makes it possible to take into account the positioning of the legs when playing sports. Ski suits are equipped with additional protective equipment, such as elbow pads, knee pads and shoulder pads.

When creating ski suits, only high-tech materials are used. Great attention is paid to the feeling of comfort, therefore, in the manufacture of clothing, the characteristic movements that athletes make when skiing are taken into account. There are reinforced protective inserts on the shoulders, elbows and knees of the suits. To maintain freedom of movement in the area of the armpits, on the sides, neck, under the knees of women's and men's trousers and on the inside of the thighs there are elastic inserts.
