A ColorX Labs Customer Story
How We Solved Our Japan Ski Trip Storage Problem
Our team at ColorX Labs travels to Japan for skiing, snowboarding, and shopping. Here's how SilkCrane storage changed everything.
🎿 From the team at ColorX Labs
Our team loves shopping for winter gear in Japan!
The Problem We Had
At ColorX Labs, we're passionate about innovation in automotive vinyl wraps. But we're also passionate about skiing and snowboarding! Our team makes regular trips to Japan for both business and pleasure.
Our Challenges:
- Expensive baggage fees - Flying with ski and snowboard equipment cost us hundreds of dollars per trip
- Shopping limitations - We loved buying Japanese winter gear but couldn't bring it all home
- Travel hassle - Dragging heavy equipment through airports, trains, and hotels was exhausting
- Multiple trips per year - We visit Japan several times annually, so these problems multiplied
"We needed a better solution. That's when we discovered SilkCrane."
— ColorX Labs Team
SilkCrane's simple process solved all our problems!
How We Use SilkCrane Storage
Here's our typical workflow when visiting Japan
Arrive & Shop
We land in Japan and immediately start shopping for winter gear. Japan has incredible selection - Burton, K2, and brands we can't get in the US. We buy what we want without worrying about luggage limits!
Ship to SilkCrane
We ship everything directly from the store to SilkCrane's storage facility. Their team handles it all - we just provide the tracking number. Super easy!
Hit the Slopes
When we're ready to ski or snowboard, SilkCrane ships our gear to our hotel in Niseko, Hakuba, or wherever we're headed. It's waiting for us when we arrive!
Store for Next Time
After our trip, we use the free return shipping label to send everything back to SilkCrane. Our gear stays in Japan, ready for our next visit. We fly home light and save hundreds on baggage fees!
