Same custom-milled Japanese fabric obsession, softer drape
Brand profile
Tokyo menswear label building traceable organic-fiber fabrics into restrained, fully Japan-made tailoring and relaxed workwear.

Designer Shunsuke Ishikawa visits farms and mills in Peru, Argentina, Turkey and Uruguay to source traceable organic cotton, wool, alpaca and hemp for each collection.
Fabrics like Organic Wool Survival Cloth are developed with Japanese spinners, and garments are cut and sewn domestically rather than sourced from mills off the shelf.
The clothes sit between soft suiting and loose utility shapes, with shirts around $275-450 — priced for the materials and construction rather than visible branding.
