Onward to real values KJUS counts on sustainability, emotion, honesty.

The world has changed. The time of excess and unbridled appetite for more has gone. Superficial ­luxury is rapidly falling out of favor. A new value system is on the horizon. It focuses on sustainability.

True depth instead of superficial pettiness. Emotional content instead of the mere material satisfaction of one’s desires.

What remains is an appreciation for the finer things.

But one approaches them from a different perspective. Becomes more aware of their beauty. Recognizes their inner value. Ownership is not the motivation, neither is prestige. Instead, the message of the product takes center stage. It is expressed in its quality, its character, and its vibrancy. Be it a watch, an automobile or clothing.

The KJUS message is wellbeing in the great outdoors. The intense mountain experience. The feeling of freedom. The allure of expanding your horizons.

The essence of the KJUS brand is the attitude towards life it expresses. It is based on the values that made KJUS strong. Professionalism, attention to detail, unwillingness to compromise. KJUS appeals to people who share this attitude.

KJUS remains true to itself. Consistently following the path it has chosen. Now more than ever: Outstanding quality is our top priority. In the product. In our service. KJUS is a strong partner for strong partners. Success is based on concerted effort. On common objectives. On proximity to the market. This is where a mountain lifestyle starts. KJUS interprets

this trend as a return to authenticity. To reality. But at a higher level of quality. Honesty is a good fit for this lifestyle. More so than it seems. Understatement as an expression of class. KJUS consistently follows this line. The same attributes for ski collection made to wear on the mountain as Spirit collection for before and after skiing: comfort, softness, lightness.

KJUS never stops. There is always something that can be improved. In terms of performance. In terms of weight. In terms of design. Top athletes set the standard. They are constantly trying to outdo themselves. This, too, is a lasting value at KJUS. Didi Serena, President, CEO and mentor of the KJUS brand

The logo is the brand

A logo. Simple. Elegant. Dynamic. Orange, white, black. You know what it means. What it stands for. It sets you apart from the masses. Differentiates you. But it also creates a bond. Brief eye contact.

A spontaneous understanding. Unspo­ ken, yet unmistakable. You are one of us? So am I. The logo is an expression of a shared demand: For life. For the sport. For the quality of a product. For the func­ tionality of clothing. The expectation is uncompromising skiwear. It is re­ flected in the performance of the ski­ wear. Comfort, protection, freedom of movement. The functions are neither new nor unusual, but perfecting them is. This is objective for KJUS. Disci­ plined. Passionate. Tireless. Perfor­ mance is not just a matter of material

and design, it is also based on passion, ambition and the labor of love. It seems as though these values are quantifiable in the product. Measurable. Tangible. And it is. The perfect product is the result of a philosophy, an attitude, a mentality.

It can only be created if everything is just right. When not just the head is in­ volved, but also the heart. The way it is with KJUS.

STRENGTH. EXPRESSION. PURPOSE.

The logo takes a new form in the ­current collection. Three-dimensional.

Expressive. Razor-sharp lines define its contour and character. A master­piece of ­craftsmanship. 14 steps for every logo. 18 minutes of precision work. Too elaborate, you might say. But KJUS knows no other way. Because striving for perfection does not allow for com­ promise.

bode miller The man behind the legend.

KJUS rider Bode Miller is a legend on the international skiing circuit: fast, successful, freedom-loving, close to nature. But also independent, forceful and spontaneous. Christoph Frutiger and Brett Rapkin have made a new movie about him, revealing an open, pleasant and profound person.

Filmmaker Christoph Frutiger was amazed. Here was one of the best skiers of all time, in his motor home sitting in front of a game console, holding a guitar. And taking great pleasure in the rocking tune he was eliciting from the instrument. “Like a big boy who is just enjoying life,” says Frutiger.

This is how we know Bode Miller. On and off the slopes. Different.

Exciting. Playful. Uncompromising. Forceful. And successful: world champion, world cup victor, Olympic medalist, serial winner in the world cup.

With body and soul But Bode Miller is also an “open, pleasant, profound and grounded person.” That is how Christoph Frutiger came to know him. The renowned Swiss outdoor and stunt filmmaker (involved in the last three Bond movies, among others) paid him a visit at the FIS ski races in Adelboden, Wengen and Kitzbühel. Working with American director Brett Rapkin, he has made a short documentary film that portrays the person behind the skiing legend.

Christoph Frutiger renowned Swiss outdoor and stunt filmmaker

Those who want to experience the skiing circuit and its protagonists up close have to cross some hurdles. And that is not a simple task.

“Without the help of Team America, we would not have gotten access to the training area so easily,” Frutiger says in retrospect. “But Bode and his team were very supportive.”

Bode Miller took the movie team on an exciting journey; Interviews on the ski lift. Access inside his motor home and into his own personal world. The result are images and a side of Bode nobody has seen before. However: Those who want to accompany the skiing star, up close and personal, have to brace themselves. They need a large dose of flexibility. They have to get involved with Bode ­Miller.

He has a big heart and can hardly bear to refuse an autograph. He takes time for his fans. Keeps a cool head. Even in the midst of major commotion and stress. And he is always there for his Team America of around eight members. There he is the boss and friend all rolled into one. He takes time for his people. Looks after them.

“Like a circus director who loves his company with body and soul,”

says Christoph Frutiger. He learned that from his parents. At home, Bode and his three sisters had plenty of company from their peers.

Because it “smelled a bit more of freedom” at their house. And of true solidarity.

We have to look after each other And that remains to this day. What many don’t know: In the immediate vicinity of his parents’ house, Bode has bought a farm engaged in organic agriculture. The proceeds go to his Turtle Ridge Foundation for the welfare of children. Bode Miller does a lot for the community.

He says: “We have to look after each other.”

But professionalism never falls by the wayside. Christoph Frutiger had the chance to experience that. “Bode is very aware of his body and his limits. Where others take their training to the extreme, he knows how far he can and wants to go.” Or when he wants to dance through a quick slalom after a downhill training run. Which happened in Kitzbühel. After the second downhill training run he had enough of the fast tempo. Bode wanted to add a slalom run in the neighboring village. The message came by SMS. The film crew had to act quickly.

They packed their things and were able to get breathtaking footage of Bode between the poles.

Typically Bode. Unconventional. Spontaneous. direct. Filmmaker Christoph Frutiger says: “Bode Miller is anything but a superficial partygoer and small-talker. What he says and does is meaningful.”

At the end of last season, the world learned of his one-year-old daughter. He left the skiing circuit even before the season finals to spend time with his daughter. Over the long term, racing is difficult when you would rather be somewhere else entirely. Bode Miller has more than 360 races behind him. Not that he lost his appetite for the sport. Skiing will always be a part of him. But: He needs a break.

Maybe forever. One thing is for sure: He wants to spend more time with his daughter. To be there with her. See her first steps. Hear her first words. Take responsibility. Enjoy life and his good fortune. Just as he has always done. And if he says goodbye to racing forever, that has positive aspects – he would have more time for KJUS…

KJUS & bode miller – a shared passion for the sport of skiing KJUS has been the skiwear sponsor for Bode Miller and his Team America since the fall of 2007. during the 08/09 World Cup skiing season, the KJUS camera team of Christoph Frutiger and Brett Rapkin followed Team America and recorded Bode during his everyday life. A fascinating film with exciting discussions about the World Cup skiing circuit, ski racing and Bode’s philosophy about ambition, knowing your limits, risk, fighting hard and about the constant challenge of living this philosophy.

KJUS is also demanding and strives to set new standards. To remain uncompromising in terms of esthetics and functionality of skiwear and sports wear.

This film shows passion for the sport of skiing in its raw form. It is dedicated to all friends and partners of the KJUS brand.

JEAN-CLAUDE

BIVER

“The most important element of a brand is its message.

We are not merely selling a product, but a philosophy.”

It was entirely unknown just a few years ago. One brand of watches among many. Until Jean-Claude Biver came along. He made the Hublot brand what it is today. He told a story. An excellent and compelling story. It began with an idea. Jean-Claude Biver ap­ proached the watch from an entirely new perspective. In recogniti­ on of the great history of the watchmaker’s art in Switzerland. But also looking forward. The essence of the Hublot brand is the link between yesterday and tomorrow. Fusion is what the godfather of Hublot calls it. It leads people into the future. That is the messa­ ge of the Hublot brand. And its unrivalled success. It is based on passion. Discipline. Performance. Jean-Claude Biver: “First of all, hard work. Then hard work. Followed by more hard work. Then creativity. Support from partners. And finally, you also need just a pinch of luck.” Today, Hublot has achieved cult brand status ­driven by passionate consumers. Just like KJUS. Because the brand message is conveyed through the product. Consistent and lineal.

That forms a bond. The successful fusion of tradition and vision creates common ground between Hublot and KJUS.

Mountain Lifestyle Nature Design Wellness

Is skiing just a sport or is there more to it? In case of surfing, this question is easily answered: The sport has long become a global lifestyle. It is expressed in fashion, music and architecture as well as offering fertile soil for countless brands. Surfer or non-surfer: Everyone is invited to partake in this attitude towards life.

cade later, the pioneers are followed by the bon vivants. In search of the Mountain Lifestyle. In search of real, honest feelings.

Is there a Mountain Lifestyle just like there is a Beach Lifestyle?

The answer to this question is not so readily apparent. One thing is for sure – the mountains have always exuded an almost uncanny allure. But does that mean a typical Mountain Lifestyle has developed and spread into the cities?

The new Mountain Lifestyle is also apparent in architecture. It combines modernity with regional charm. Nature becomes part of the architecture. Generous glass façades bring the spectacle of nature inside. Wood and stone build a bridge between modernity and an affinity for nature. Clear lines and a modern design are skillfully combined with local craftwork. Fresh spring and glacier water flows in the spas. Authentic recipes celebrate fresh foods from the region.

There has been movement in the mountain world for a number of years. Urban dwellers are discovering the revitalizing side of the Alps. The mountains as a source of energy. As a counterpoint to hectic everyday life. As a place to let go and feel good. The peaks have been conquered via the most challenging routes. A good de-

The signs that a new Mountain Lifestyle is emerging are multiplying. An awareness of the simple, the authentic, the natural. The enjoyment of nature and the wish to preserve it. The mountains as a source of energy, harmony and vision. The combination of sports and pleasure.

LuCas Swieykowski “Freeriding is the unique feeling of being absolutely free. One with the mountain. Freeriding is my life.”

He stands at the very top. The abyss before him. Snow-covered precipices. Crevasses. Rock spurs. Ice-covered rock. Nothing, but mountain. Unpredictable. Dangerous. Enticing. Adrenalin pulses through his body. But he remains completely calm. And then the moment arrives: He hurtles down the slope and is free. As free as a person can be. For Lucas Swieykowski, this is pure happiness.

The extreme skier has made freeriding his life. He has fulfilled his life dream. Time and time again, he tests his own limits. He wants to go further and further. Always searching for an even better line, an even more audacious jump. Driven by inner energy recipro­ cated by the mountain. Risk is his constant companion. Lurking in unstable snow cover on the slopes, hidden in cracks, in the rock.

Every movement, every turn, every sweep must be precisely calculated. Lighting-quick decisions are essential for survival. The freerider sets his own limits. He bears full responsibility for all he does. Including his equipment. Lucas Swieykowski wears KJUS.

The Arctic Glove shelters your hands. As nice to wear as it looks.

Premium craftsmanship. Maximum comfort and optimum freedom of movement. The softest leather for the harshest conditions.

A glorious winter landscape. The Jotunheimen mountain range with its snow-covered peaks and breath­ taking glaciers is so close you could almost reach out and touch it. Unspoiled nature as far as the eye can see. The perfect backdrop for the KJUS Spirit Collection.

Lasse Kjus is there. Fredrik Luytkis. Anja Alme Gardli. Lucas Swieykowski. With his single-engine Cessna, Lasse has flown the crew into the mountain landscape under the spell of an arctic winter. Eidsbugarden is what they call this place. A few shacks. A small hotel. No other traces of civilization. Nothing but sky and snow. The KJUS team riders are in their element. Ready for the photo shoot. Photographer Sindre Kinnerød measures the light. They are ready to begin.

Tuesday, March 10, in the afternoon

The first pictures are taken in glorious weather. In the warm light of the evening sun, the beauty of the Spirit Collection really comes into its own. Then, night falls. The temperature drops. Wednesday, March 11: An early start to the day. Sindre knows no mercy. He wants to capture the morning light. The day is long.

Supported by a small group of local helpers the team gives it their all. The good mood among the participants shows in the photos. The KJUS Spirit is alive: Not only in the new Spirit Collection, but also in the hearts of the crew. It is a good day.

Thursday, March 12: Gray-black clouds in the sky. Heavy snow flurries. A cold wind. KJUS weather. A final effort by the team. Then the photo shoot is complete. They head back south towards Oslo. Eidsbugarden falls back into its late winter sleep.
