Land of the Rising Sun

Our tireless proprietor, Mike Hodis, has just returned from Japan. He spent his time there making sure all our delivered goods are perfect in the stores, absorbing the local culture, working with master retailers, and contemplating denim with others who immerse themselves in the subject. It is our philosophy that just producing and delivering a product crafted with passion, pride, and hard work is not enough. Our dream is to share the knowledge we have obtained along the way that have inspired us to instill rare details into our garments. We hope to get the world excited about authentic stitches from vintage sewing machines and ingenious seam constructions forgotten by the modern minds of mass production. We may seem a bit obsessed with our work but you can be assured every Rising Sun piece is designed and produced with the utmost regard to detail and quality.
