Montbell standardized their shopping website combining all the regions. This also looks like it increased the prices by 30-40% across the board for shipping from Japan. It’s still cheaper than buying from US direct but it’s a huge price increase for a regional change. Just as an example their Torrent Flier rain jacket went from $175 to $230 and the Plasma Alpine went from $290 to over $400. You can still see the old prices by changing the shipping country to Japan but this won’t help you without a freight forwarding service.

This makes them much less attractive compared to domestic options now for things like rain/wind layers. Fun while it lasted.
