History

The brand originates from the legacy of the Indian Motocycle Manufacturing Company, established in 1901. While the American company focused on machinery, the Japanese apparel license transformed the name into a fashion staple during the late twentieth century. It played a significant role in the global popularization of vintage Americana. By blending tribal motifs with biker silhouettes, the brand became a fixture within the Tokyo street style scene and heritage fashion movements.
