‘極伍’ - The Exceed Five is here.

The first generation of the Exceed series appeared three years ago. Today, it reaches its fifth-generation design.

This fifth generation is the design I am most satisfied with to date. From initial concept to finalization, we revised it countless times.

The focus was on detail. The top priority was balancing the overall design with enhanced usability — we repeatedly adjusted the waterproof platform, the length of the waist, and the depth of the grooves before finalizing the shape.

It is worth noting that we produced two versions. The first is a simple version, machined entirely by CNC.

The second is a handmade version. After CNC machining, we rework it on a manual lathe, making the process more complex. The grooves on this version also enhance its anti-slip grip.

I originally planned to release only the handmade version — but I could not bring myself to drop the CNC version, because it looks more complete. I believe some of you may prefer it.

Thank you very much.
