Skinny Who?
Skinny Jim started with a father, son and two Suzuki Jimnys. It’s all grown from there. Other than the Jimnys. They’re still small.
Like many, we reckon these lightweight 4x4s are the business. Especially when it comes to off-roading, camping, beach driving, city driving, parking. More than you’d think.
The one thing the Jimny doesn’t like? Excess weight. That’s why we’re all about keeping Jimnys skinny – in weight, style and functionality.
Overload your favourite little wagon with heavyweight accessories, and you lose the magic. We learned this first-hand.
That’s what led us to making Jimny-specific gear. Hardware as light as it is tough, and as minimal as the car itself.
Like the Jimny, for the Jimny.

Paul, with a lifetime of automotive tinkering under his belt, is a relentless innovator and chief product designer. Tom is all about the aesthetic and usability of the gear, which means he spends a lot of time putting it to the test, and capturing the journey,
They’re both always keen to chat about your Jimny, their Jimny, Jimny ideas, Jimny adventures, Jimny misadventures. You get it!
Stay Skinny,
SJ
