About DESCENTE:
DESCENTE is a French word meaning “slip down.” The brand’s iconic arrow logo is known as the “Quality Mark,” representing the three basic skiing techniques: “straight descent,” “diagonal descent,” and “traverse.” This signifies DESCENTE’s brand DNA rooted in skiing. The three arrows converge into a large arrow facing upward, symbolizing courage and fearlessness, embodying the skiing attitude of descending physically while ascending spiritually. This also implies that DESCENTE always upholds exquisite manufacturing craftsmanship as its foundation, continuously breaking limits, and pursuing functional aesthetics and technologically innovative design.
