POP-UP Event “Japan Souvenir” @ Hankyu MEN’S TOKYO
We will be holding an event at POP-UP SPACE B on the 1st floor of Hankyu MEN’S TOKYO from Wednesday, September 17 to Tuesday, October 14, 2025.
In addition to the Kasuri (IKAT)Cotton Black T-shirt, MIZEN’s first of its kind and well received since its previous debut,
we will welcome you with a menswear-focused lineup including the iconic KIMONO Knit Square Cape, now affectionately named “KAMUI”,
and a selection of one-of-a-kind made-to-order coats.
Our director, Mr. Teranishi, will also be present at the venue whenever possible to assist customers directly.
We invite you to experience the stories hidden within the “unseen margins” that each piece quietly conveys.

COLLECTION
KAMUI – KIMONO Knit Square Cape
Kurume Kasuri MIDNIGHT ,KAGOSHIMA PREF.
This piece fuses two contrasting materials—stretchable knit and non-stretch kimono fabric—through the highest level of sewing craftsmanship known as linking technique.
By utilizing the standardized width(about 38cm) of kimono fabric used nationwide, the cape is structurally universal and compatible with textiles from any production region. This innovative design was recognized with the 2024 Good Design Award.
Rather than putting design at the forefront, the cape’s form was conceived to highlight the inherent qualities of its materials and techniques. It embodies MIZEN’s philosophy that ""technique takes the lead""."
"KAMUI – KIMONO Knit Square Cape
KOGIN-ZASHI ""VICTORY"" YABANE - Arrow Feather Pattern
In a knitwear industry where mass production is the norm, this cape stands apart as an exceptional model—crafted one by one with care. Clients can freely select their preferred combination of knit color and kimono textile, allowing them to commission a truly unique piece.
It was brought to life through the alignment of the factory’s pursuit of “showcasing technique” and MIZEN’s guiding principle of “design thinking,” founded on a deep relationship of mutual trust.
Though simple in appearance, it carries a wealth of untold stories—an iconic MIZEN masterpiece that invites you to Interpret the Unseen.

「余白を楽しむプロジェクト」
A Project to Interpret the Unseen
MIZENは 目に映る美しさの奥に広がる産地の風土や歴史 職人の技術 そして生き様といった『余白』こそが我々の作品の本質的な価値であると考えています。
現代のファッションは 瞬間的で視覚的な刺激が重視されるがあまり過度なスピードが求められています。
その加速された消費の世界では本来時間をかけて丁寧に仕上げられるべき手仕事が評価の舞台にすら立つことができません。
伝統技術の衰退は我々一人ひとりが無自覚に求めている『欲望の速度』によって引き起こされているのです。
だからこそ私たちはそのスピードを緩めたときに見えてくる新鮮で豊かな世界を作品を通じて提示したいと考えています。
MIZENが目指す道は現代の流れに逆行する 静的で悠然とした美の在り方への挑戦かもしれません。
しかし日本にはかつて「余白を楽しむ」という価値観が確かに存在していましたそれはものの奥に潜む物語や気配を自ら感じ取り想像し心を満たす行為であり日本人が長い歴史の中で培ってきた美意識でもあります。
私たちは 現代の人々が忘れかけているこの感性を日本各地に点在する伝統技術とともに再び呼び覚まし世界へと届けていきたいと考えています。
そしてその余白に自ら気づき 埋めていく過程に喜びや幸せを感じられることこそが物質的経済的なラグジュアリーとは異なる精神的な新たなラグジュアリーの在り方だと信じています。
MIZENは「余白を楽しむプロジェクト」として日本の伝統技術を「ブランド」として昇華させるために職人たちの手仕事とその奥に眠る物語を洋服という形にのせ新たなラグジュアリーの可能性を問い続けていきます。
