ABOUT KYOTO DENIM

We are working to sublimate and inherit the genuine techniques used in kimonos and the feelings of handiwork into the material of denim, and to let many people know about them through new things and things.It is the only brand in the world.

Crafted in Japan

Kyoto Denim blends the refined artistry of traditional kimono craftsmanship with contemporary denim.

Rooted in techniques refined since Japan’s mid-Edo era — about 300 years ago — each piece is carefully hand-dyed and crafted.

Merging the warmth of handwork with modern sensibility, Kyoto Denim creates a new form of Japanese beauty — timeless yet ever-evolving.

Craftsmanship

Kyoto denim manufacturing

Many of Kyoto Denim's products and works are one-of-a-kind.
We sometimes create one-of-a-kind items in various shapes, such as adding customer-ordered patterns to denim clothing and bags.
The techniques used to make kimonos are used in this process.
There is harmony in technology, and most of the time it happens in a moment during the process.

Kyoto Denim's one-of-a-kind pieces are like art beloved by Japan, and no two are alike.

In a song, it can be a momentary event where each person's voice overlaps.There is a lot of harmony in the traditional craft techniques that are made by hand, and the process has a background, romance, and history.The history and the newness created there overlap, creating a new harmony that only exists once.

kimono is here

In Japan, we have cultivated wonderful technology, spirit, art, and lifestyle that we can be proud of around the world. In particular, Japanese art has a long historical background in which it has been deeply rooted in daily life as a ``beauty for use'' that can be used in daily life, rather than something that can be seen in a frame. Therefore, isn't it natural that all of today's so-called traditional crafts are originally items used in daily life, such as fashion and interior decoration? Kyoto Denim is working to pass on the Japanese ``beauty of use'' to the next generation, including the romance and process of manufacturing.

Why denim

As a kimono gets older, its value may increase as an antique. Among modern clothing, denim is a material that also increases in value over time. In other words, we apply traditional hand-painted Kyoto Yuzen dyeing to denim with the desire to pass on the culture by applying traditional hand-painted Kyoto Yuzen dyeing to materials that have the same value. In addition, there is another reason. The world is rapidly changing. For example, when it comes to vehicles, we now have horses, carriages, and cars. Kimono is clothing from the era when people rode horses. Currently, the vehicle is a car.

KIMONO

Even if lifestyles change in this way, culture continues to grow. Traditional Crafts Kyoto's hand-painted Yuzen dyed clothing is not only used in the form of kimonos, but now it is also used in clothing that can be used for transportation in cars, motorcycles, and bicycles, and it is normal for traditional crafts to be passed down naturally. That's what I think. I think that the fact that things are passed down in this way is one of the great things about traditional crafts and Japanese culture.
