Motivated by the recent experiment on kagome-lattice antiferromagnets, we study the zero-field ordering behavior of the antiferromagnetic classical Heisenberg model on a uniaxially distorted kagome lattice by Monte Carlo simulations. It is found that a first-order transition, which has no counterpart in the corresponding undistorted model, takes place at a very low temperature. Origin of the transition is discussed in terms of topological excitations inherent to the model.
