SWIFT INDUSTRIES JAPAN TOUR!

Hello! My name is NB. I am in charge of Blue Lug distribution.
Today I’m going to write about the Swift Industries Japan tour.
This weekend Swift Industries are coming to Japan!
The Last time I met them was in 2014, 3 years ago. I am very excited to see them again.

Martina is a designer of Swift Industries.
She actually used to work at R.E.LOAD. Because of that, a lot of Swift Industries bags have pop of colors, and
the durability of the bags is as strong as R.E.LOAD.

This is Jason. He had been a mechanic in a bike store over 15 years, and he has a professional outdoor guide license. He got much knowledge about outdoor through his experience, and used the idea to improve their products.

In addition, they are just great people. In 2014, we have been in Seattle just one day, but they showed how to make bags as much as they could. We also created collaboration bags and hung out until late night.

This time, they are going to bring a new bag that we haven’t seen yet. And you can order a custom bag from them directly. If you order, you’ll get an extra pouch.

We made a small Japanese charm for this event. The manager of Blue Lug Kamiuma, Tani design this based on Japanese playing cards. On the backside, it is written as “スウィフトインダストリーズ” in Japanese, which means Swift Industries. And “交通安全” means road safety. This is 100 limited. Handmade in Kyoto.

We also made special stickers for people who will come to the event.
The event schedule is as follows.

Saturday, September 16th starts 12 o’clock, Grumpy in Hiroshima.
Sunday, September 17th starts about 13 o’clock, Achieve in Kyoto.
Monday (national holiday) September 18th starts about 14 o’clock, Blue Lug Kamiuma in Tokyo.

Please come and hang out with us! See you at the event!
