History
Established in 2014 by United Arrows Ltd., Astraet was developed under the creative direction of Koji Kuga. The brand's name derives from the Old English word for street, reflecting its focus on urban-inspired high fashion. Within the Japanese market, Astraet represents a shift toward mature, intellectual streetwear. It occupies a niche in fashion history by bridging the gap between luxury department store standards and the functional, minimalist movements of the mid-2010s.
