Twice a year, Snow Peak celebrates what they call, their thanksgiving. A time for them to show thanks to the community for continued support. In America, our products are all offered in a single go, yet in Japan select products are offered as exclusives in online portals. Sometimes this is due to expected demand, other times it's to simply do something different than their retail doors. Whatever the reason, it is a great preview as to what we'll get in the coming months.

Entry IGT Black
Snow Peak's Entry IGT is an all-in-one three unit table that accepts most IGT accessories. Continuing in the theme of Festival releases, this edition comes in a black finish (no details on if it is powder coated, anodized, etc.).
Typically the Entry IGT includes veneered wood inserts that are exclusive to the model, here we see a continuation of that but with bamboo as the material.
No details on US pricing, however this is approximately ¥4,000 more expensive than the standard model in Japan.
Mesh Case S and Mesh Case L in Green
I love the mesh cases. Not only do they fit the Chopping Board Set M and L respectively, but they make great breathable bags for kitchen utensils allowing them to be put away wet.
Continuing with the color theme for this Festival event, these are offered in a forest green colorway for the first time. A first, as the Kitchen Mesh Case S and Kitchen Mesh Case L have only been offered in black to date.
This Olive color edition is about ¥200 more expensive than the standard version.
Canvas Noasobi Black Tote Bag M
Similar to Tote Bag Medium we receive, the Noasobi bag is a simpler model for every day carry. Designed to fit A4 sized papers, laptops, etc. While most American model bags come in Snow Peak's standard beige colorway, international models are offered in black year-round. The exclusive for this product is the size and color combined.
Snow Peak Ultralight Umbrella Black
Snow Peak's Ultralight Umbrella makes for a good everyday carry. Throw it in a backpack or bag, it's ultra-compact size and weight ensure you're never caught out. Snow Peak has been experimenting with additional colorways for this model, with an Ivory edition coming out earlier this year, and now a black model.
This Black color edition is about ¥1,800 more expensive than the standard version.
