Studio D'Artisan
Studio D'artisan, being one of the original five Japanese denim companies known as the "Osaka Five," has had over 4 decades to perfect their craft. Founded in 1979 by Shigeharu Tagaki, who was filled with passion for denim through his experience with the original Levi's jeans brought to Japan by G.I.'s around the time of WW2.
By focusing on the unique stiffness, unevenness, fading, and texture found in old-fashioned denim woven by vintage power looms, SDA intends to inherit the “essence of jeans”.
