History
Established in 1999 by the Japanese retail group Beams, the label was created to honor American heritage clothing from 1945 to 1965. It functions within the Ametora movement, which involves the curation and reproduction of traditional Western styles. The brand documented Japanese craftsmanship applied to American archival designs, contributing to the global interest in heritage menswear and the documentation of vintage garment construction techniques.
