This is somewhat the heart and soul of our brand. A city that keeps inspiring us to create and develop ourselves. Here you find that special Japanese spirit that makes us tick. An extremely great sense for style and how to wear what. And most of all – the total dedication to style in every small detail. We returned to our roots. To where the originals come from. The place where we created our very first collection. Welcome to Tokyo.

One early rainy morning we pulled ourselves out of bed to visit the Tsukiji Fish Market. A smelly, colourful and interesting experience. This man who’s name we never got, gladly pulled our sweater over his head and posed around 0630 am.
