A Flagship Store Where You Can Experience Japanese Mountain Craftsmanship
The only directly operated store for the Japanese mountaineering brand “Finetrack.” In a Japanese-inspired space evoking natural stones and tea rooms, you can not only try on the entire product line but also experience demonstrations showcasing the performance of their dry layers, which prevent sweat-induced chills. Furthermore, you can interact with staff who know Japan's terrain inside out, making it a valuable destination for anyone wanting to seriously enjoy mountaineering, trekking, and other activities in Japan.
finetrack is a dedicated mountaineering brand with an in-depth understanding of Japan’s unique climate. From the popular Dry Layer® series—designed to prevent sweat-induced chills—to hard shells for snowy mountains and high-performance tents, finetrack TOKYO BASE is the only place where you can try on nearly every item in the catalog. Another distinctive benefit of the flagship store is that customers can always receive hands-on guidance on how to set up their tent. Many staff members are active outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy mountaineering and other pursuits. They have extensive product knowledge and can share field-tested insights and tips for exploring Japan’s wilderness from a real user’s perspective.
The interior reflects a deep respect for Japanese tea rooms and traditional architecture. The first thing to catch your eye is the large natural stones boldly placed along the eaves and on the floor. These stones were manually transported by descendants of the stonemasons from Azuchi-Momoyama Castle. Their cross-sections, reminiscent of mountain ridges, embody the intention for visitors to “feel the mountains beneath their feet.” The central suspended shelf is inspired by the “Bōsen” tea room at Daitoku-ji Temple in Kyoto. Within this space, crafted using traditional Japanese woods such as Tottori cedar and Yakusugi, customers can leisurely select products.
Behind the hanging shelves, various items are lined up in rows.
At our flagship stores, you can not only see the products but also experience the performance of the materials through demonstrations using actual fabrics. A must-try is the demonstration of the brand’s signature “Dry Layer®” technology. It visually shows how sweat passes through the skin-side layer (the dry material) and is expelled outward, clearly demonstrating how it prevents sweat-induced chills. This offers a valuable opportunity to gain a deep understanding of its performance as “life-saving gear.” You can also verify the performance of other proprietary materials through comparative demonstrations, such as the unique insulation that resists moisture and the highly stretchable waterproof-breathable fabric.
