BRAND features

In 2017, POLEFREAK, a Japanese garage brand, was launched by a craftsman who had dedicated his life to pole making. After gaining over 23 years of experience at a pole manufacturer, he started his own independent venture to pursue his ideals in manufacturing

The brand's defining characteristics are a playful desire for something different and the craftsmanship cultivated over many years. A signature technique unique to POLEFREAK is the distinctive bending process, which is done by hand on each individual glove. The collaboration between the craftsman's skill and the user's attention to detail results in a distinctive, streamlined form. Not only is the look praised as "super cool!" and "incredibly motivating," but the brand also focuses on swing balance and usability, and allows for customization of length, basket, color, and more to suit individual preferences

POLEFREAK possesses a mysterious allure, where a single pole can instantly bring strangers together on the snow, creating a bond that is said to be "friends once you hold it." It is an independent brand infused with the creator's love for poles and free-spirited ideas
