Avid skiers know why they fell in love with skiing. They know the feeling of becoming one with the mountain--with nature--as adrenaline pumps through their body. They know the clarity that comes with the peace and quiet of an early-morning powder day. They know, as they stand on top of mountain that has been there long before them, that the freedom of skiing will forever be heaven on earth. This very freedom, this independence, this spirit of riding is the fuel that powers Kjus to create the world’s most forward-thinking skiwear. The Kjus collection is for the athlete who never holds back on the hill and refuses to be held back by his gear.
Founded in 1997, this Norway-born company started their legacy by making gloves and hats for mountain-lovers. A short three years later Kjus had expanded to their first men’s skiwear collection, further launching their sleek and functional women’s collection in 2001. More than 10 years later, Kjus is continually setting new standards in skiwear. As the sport itself progresses to unimaginable heights Kjus is inventing innovative technology to that enhances freedom of motion without restriction, something that is crucial for all skiers.
Inspired by the spirit of skiing and the influence of sports such as biking, golf, and mountaineering, Kjus is constantly raising their standards. Such inspiration has created Kjus Free Motion technology, which uses 4-way stretch fabric to guarantee that your skiwear will move with you, not against you. Schoeller PCM lining, PrimaLoft insulation, and Dermizax laminate will also ensure that you’ll remain the perfect temperature and 100 percent dry even when the thermostat dips below negative.
While Kjus boasts the most technical advances in the industry, they are also true to their classic and sleek look. Their high-quality gear is flattering to the form, making it perfect for both on the slopes and off. Kjus’ young designers have a pulse on the latest trends in the skiing world, offering some of the season’s hottest colors and styles. With so many options to choose from, there truly is a Kjus design out there for everyone.
Hamilton Sports is proud to carry the 2008/2009 Kjus Collection because we believe in the perfection that is skiing. We are a skiers’ ski shop and know how important your gear is to a day, or a season, on the hill. We don’t wear it because it looks good (well maybe a little bit), we wear it because it helps us progress our own skiing, facilitating movement, and never restricting us while we carve corduroy or ride powder. It is with the spirit of skiing and the passion for the mountains that we live our daily lives and we couldn’t see a better fit than Kjus.
