Casual Hikers
On November 10, 2024, Khakis held a "Casual Hikers" outdoor session with Gossamer Gear, organized for anyone to enjoy hiking in their daily life. This session aimed to give participants a relaxing experience in nature, surrounded by the full autumn ambiance of the mountains. Hikers also had the opportunity to experience hiking minimalism firsthand through the lightweight and convenient storage features of the Gossamer Gear's Minimalist 19 Daypack. Gossamer Gear is a brand that has consistently influenced the growth of the ultralight hiking culture, offering a range of backpacks, storage solutions, and hiking gear.
The session began at 8:50AM with check-in at the Khakis Yeonhui Store, followed by a hike to Ansan Bongsudae. The 450-meter course was designed with trails suitable for light hiking and deck sections, ensuring that participants of all levels could join at a comfortable pace. During the hike, Gossamer Gear provided energy snacks and warm tea, helping hikers complete the course without physical strain.
The route from Yeonhui-dong to Ansan Bongsudae provided a smooth transition from cityscape to natural scenery. The birch forest and leaf-covered paths enhanced the rich autumn atmosphere. After passing through Muakjeong, the hikers continued towards Ansan Bongsudae, completing the hike in approximately three and a half hours. They returned to Khakis Yeonhui Store by 12:30PM, where they enjoyed sandwiches and coffee, and special prizes were given out through a raffle.
Casual Hikers offers a chance to step away from daily life and find relaxation in nature. We would like to express our gratitude to all the hikers who participated in the first session, and Khakis aims to continue expanding its connection to outdoor culture set against the backdrop of nature.
