In long trail running races, we use headlamps during the night sections, but we had been thinking about creating a "waist light" that could be worn around the waist to make running safer and more comfortable.
The milestone's distinctive "soft warm white LED" is useful when the road gets foggy . If that warm white light could be projected from a waist-level angle, lower than your head, visibility would be ensured even in dense fog, making for a safer and more comfortable ride.
If we could make this a reality, I was sure it would become a useful item for night trails!
Just as PAAGOWORKS ' RUSH HIP was released and was extremely popular, it was constantly out of stock. I discovered the midnight gray version in a shop and immediately purchased it. I vividly remember being impressed by how well-made it was when I used it.
I knew the CEO and designer, Mr. Saito, and Mr. Watanabe, the sales representative, was also a Trail Master user, so we took the plunge and contacted them. As soon as we explained our concept, they immediately agreed to work with us on creating something . We went over the cost and specs and then immediately agreed to collaborate, saying, "It sounds interesting, so let's do it! "
From there, we made samples, made improvements, made more improvements, conducted field tests, and incorporated our requests, and finally the ``Trailmaster + RUSH LIGHT'' that we are introducing today was born.

Our flagship model , the Trailmaster , and PAAGOWORKS' signature product, the RUSH, are a perfect match.

It's a must-have night gear for trail running. By the way, Yuko Yada, who cooperated with the photo shoot, is also an ambassador for both companies.

I hope everyone will try Trailmaster + RUSH LIGHT soon!
Don't worry, we will definitely make it in time for UTMF.
