About Descente

Descente is a Japanese performance brand from Osaka, founded in 1935 by Takeo Ishimoto. It is known for precision craftsmanship and advanced sportswear technology. Its approach is function first, then form, applied to versatile garments that suit the city as well as the trail. The Allterrain line is all about the highest level of performance and technical features, and includes the Mizusawa Invisible Down Jacket and Vest. Descente IO and Descente 81 take that technical knowledge and pair it with a youthful everyday look. The Anchor from the Mizusawa Down line has won awards, and the brand has collaborated with top athletes and designers.
