MITTAN

MITTAN is a Japanese unisex clothing label founded in 2013 in Osaka by designer Takeshi Mitani and now based in Kyoto's Nishijin textile district. It reinterprets folk-garment patterns as flat, trend-independent silhouettes cut from natural fibres including hemp, ramie, silk, cotton and wool, sourced from Japanese weaving regions and hand-weavers in India and Laos. Garments carry QR-coded tags documenting material origin and production, and the brand runs an in-house mending and re-dyeing service. Shirts run roughly $150-260, jackets $290-485, coats near $675. Independently owned, with no reported ownership change.
