KS Ultralight Gear: the history of the brand
The brand was born out of a man’s love for hiking and nature. Laurent Barikosky, French expatriate in Japan, is amazed by the magnificent landscapes offered by his host country. He never stopped exploring the vertiginous mountains of Japan and decided to launch his own brand of hiking and mountaineering equipment. They offers a complete range of lightweight and customizable backpacks and accessories, meeting all the technical criteria required by the sector and presenting high quality.
The backpacks of the KS Ultralight Gear brand
“The minimum of accessories but the maximum efficiency”, this is the philosophy of Laurent, keen on hiking and mountaineering, who knows the issues of these sports well. The backpack is an essential element before embarking on the hiking adventure. It must be resistant, waterproof, functional but also comfortable, while striving to be as light and as compact as possible. Here is the challenge of the young French designer: to combine a light but durable construction, while maintaining an excellent weight / resistance ratio.
