History

Yoshio Sadanari founded the company in 1993 in Kamakura, Japan, following his tenure at the influential Van Jacket brand. The label contributed to the preservation of mid-century American Ivy style within Japanese fashion. By utilizing domestic factories and high-grade fabrics, the brand established a reputation for technical precision. Its international expansion represented a significant cultural exchange, where a Japanese entity reintroduced traditional American tailoring standards to a global audience.
