N°01 / The problem

The wall every founder hits.

Domestic small-lot OEM in Japan is excellent and completely closed: Japanese-language specs, phone-first sales, platforms built for domestic brands. If you are an international designer in Tokyo, or a Japanese brand selling to Europe and the Gulf, you fall between systems. We are the English-speaking bench on the other side: couture construction, and your tech pack stays yours.

N°02 / What you get

The offer, stacked plainly.

Every category, one benchTailoring, evening, kimono-influenced cuts, streetwear and swim, not a single-category factory.

Questions / Before you write

Asked before every order.

Do you really run everything in English?

Yes. Brief, fixed quote, tech pack, fittings by video and all correspondence are in English, with written summaries after every decision so nothing lives in a phone call.

What does production cost?

Development $2,500 per style with the first sample included; production from $75 per piece to couture levels. A made-to-order tailored two-piece delivers between $1,200 and $2,400. Everything is fixed in writing before cutting.

Why us instead of domestic small-lot OEM?

Domestic OEM is superb for Japanese-language domestic brands. We make sense when you want export paperwork for Europe and the Gulf, English contracts, or embellishment-grade handwork, at five-piece minimums.

Can you work with Japanese aesthetics seriously?

Look at the bench work on this page: print-matched ukiyo-e tailoring and koi thread-painting are ours. Motif-led work is a specialty, treated with respect rather than as novelty.

How fast is delivery to Tokyo?

Samples in 3 to 4 weeks, production 2 to 6 by complexity, DHL Express to Tokyo in 2 to 3 days, duties estimated in writing upfront.
