Ichijiku
Ichijiku (一軸) began in 2018 as a collection of 30 exquisite vintage kimonos gifted to us by a woman from Kyoto’s historic Gion district. Shortly later, the first Ichijiku necktie was born. Today, Ichijiku is best known for its Kimono Bespoke line of custom-order suiting, which combines age-old tailoring methods with vintage kimono silk to create one-of-a-kind wearable works of art.
Ichijiku is driven by sustainable and ethical practices.
