A shop that not only sells products but also conveys the joy of skiing
PAPASU's philosophy is that "it's not just about selling ski gear, but about conveying the joy of skiing." To that end, they actively hold lessons and events. They
also take pride in their boot insole production and boot fitting. Boot fitting is crucial for comfortable skiing, and the foundation of boot fitting starts with the insole. Experience the benefits of insoles at PAPASU.

Profile
Owner Toshiya Ikeda
started skiing in his childhood and after graduating from university, he worked at ski shops and manufacturers before opening "PAPASU". This year marks our 18th anniversary! Skiing has become my life (laughs). I started inline skating as off-season training for skiing, and then I discovered Aggressive inline skating and became completely hooked. Aggressive inline skating was theきっかけ (trigger/reason) for me to start freeskiing. And that's how I ended up starting a shop with an indoor park.
<A brief message>
Our concept is simply "Skiing is fun!" Boot fitting is essential for comfortably enjoying skiing and inline skating! We are confident in our insole production and boot customization. We aim to be a shop that can provide not only product knowledge but also information and technical expertise.
