Moda Tarihi
Kichizo Yoshida founded Yoshida & Co. in 1935, later launching the Porter line in 1962 to distinguish its manufactured goods. The brand gained cultural significance through its association with the Ura-Harajuku streetwear movement in the 1990s. Its Tanker series, inspired by US Air Force flight jackets, became a staple of Japanese design. By collaborating with global designers, the brand transitioned from a traditional luggage maker to a central figure in contemporary fashion history.
