History

Established in 2002 by the Japanese retail group Adastria, HARE emerged as a prominent fixture in the Shibuya and Harajuku fashion scenes. The brand played a significant role in democratizing high-fashion aesthetics for a younger demographic during the mid-2000s. By consistently participating in Tokyo Fashion Week, HARE transitioned from a retail-focused label to a recognized contributor to Japan's contemporary fashion identity, bridging the gap between commercial accessibility and avant-garde design.
