Practical gear and information only available from Niseko locals
Niseko, a mecca for powder snow. TOYRU is located in a prime location near the Grand Hirafu ski resort, just a 1-2 minute walk from the gondola station.
Marked by its warm and inviting log cabin building, it's a shop dedicated to helping people enjoy powder snow and backcountry.
As a shop located in the excellent field of Niseko, it boasts a reliable selection of products that are actually useful, as well as up-to-date information on gear and the field. It aims to provide the joy that comes from using equipment, rather than just owning equipment.
The shop is well-stocked with gear and goods for enjoying powder snow and backcountry. They provide equipment tailored to what skiers want to do, along with lively advice from Niseko locals.
It's very convenient because you can get what you need even after arriving in Niseko to ski.

also have Vector Glide demo skis available. Why not try out these high-quality skis, which you rarely get a chance to try, on the snow of Niseko? In addition, we accept reservations for tours and lessons, and offer telemark ski rentals.
This "Hike up!! BC" is a highly functional hat for backcountry skiing, a TOYRU original from Niseko's handmade hat shop, Mad Hatter Niseko. It's packed with features perfect for backcountry skiing, such as a sun-blocking brim that's extremely effective when wearing sunglasses in the snow, flaps to protect your ears from the cold, a snug fit, and a fleece lining for the head that provides the necessary warmth yet is thin enough to be worn under a helmet without feeling uncomfortable, allowing you to concentrate on your skiing. TOYRU owner Takanashi personally requested the perfect hat for skiing, and after repeated improvements, it has arrived in its current form! Be sure to bring it along with you on your backcountry adventures!

In the summer, sea kayaking tours are held on the Shakotan Peninsula. The beautiful ocean of the Shakotan Peninsula is breathtaking. It has the same appeal as Niseko's powder snow!
