Fashion History
Joji Fukushima established Ring Jacket in 1954 in Osaka, Japan. The company initially focused on manufacturing high-quality suits that challenged the dominance of Western imports. Over decades, it became a central figure in the development of the Japanese Ivy and Classic style movements. By developing unique textiles like Balloon wool, the brand influenced global menswear by demonstrating that lightweight, unconstructed tailoring could maintain formal structure while providing functional mobility.
