What to know about URU

Pattern-making drives the volume

Urushiyama comes from a pattern-cutting background, and it shows in unstructured blazers, wide trousers and coats built to drape rather than hold a fixed shape.

Muted, layered, largely gender-neutral

Collections stay in neutral tones and oversized, often gender-neutral silhouettes, with knits and outerwear meant to be worn in layers rather than read as seasonal trend.

Price sits in Japanese fabric work

The high price tier reflects Japanese fabric development and cut, not logos; it began as AMAZE for FW2010 and became URU a year later, selling through select boutiques.

Brand facts

URU TOKYO is the Tokyo menswear label of designer Masaharu Urushiyama, started for Fall/Winter 2010 under the name AMAZE and renamed URU from Fall/Winter 2011. Working from a pattern-making background, Urushiyama reworks classic menswear into relaxed, oversized shapes: unstructured blazers, wide trousers, anoraks, coats and chunky knits in muted, mostly neutral palettes. Collections emphasise Japanese fabric development, layering and comfort over trend, with drapey, frequently gender-neutral silhouettes, and sell through select Japanese and international boutiques.
