BRING CIRCULAR TAKAO (Hachioji City, Tokyo; hereinafter “BCT”), a directly managed store located at Mt. Takao operated by JEPLAN, INC., (Representative Director, President, and Chief Executive Officer: Masaki Takao; hereinafter "JEPLAN") will hold a trial-on event for trail running shoes on Saturday, November 16, 2024, together with three European outdoor brands, “NNormal”, “Dynafit”, and “Haglöfs”.

BCT is pleased to announce that three prominent European outdoor brands will gather for a trail running event. Participants will be able to try on trail running shoes, run on trails, and listen to explanations about the history of the brands and their products. With the concept of "a place to find the perfect shoes for your style," the event aims to share the fun of trail running.

The event will consist of two parts, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. In the morning, participants will run three laps of a 3 km (approx. 40 min.) trail running course on Mt. In the afternoon, we will try on each brand and socialize on the wooden deck of the BCT (no advance registration required). This two-part event will provide a space for everyone to discuss the race and gear over beer, coffee, and snacks.

BCT sells sustainable apparel made from recycled polyester, which is recycled using proprietary technology from collected clothing, as well as flavorful coffee made from carefully selected eco-friendly coffee beans and draft beer sold by volume. Takao in November, when the autumn leaves begin to change color, is considered the busiest time of the year. We hope that visitors to Mt. Takao will enjoy this event.

The JEPLAN Group will continue to work together with domestic and international partners to realize its mission of "We circulate our world," and the entire group will strive to drive the circular economy forward.
