Please note there are some individual differences.
Made in Japan
※All REKROW materials are taken from one-off workwear. These items are
naturally worn-in over time, and some damages are kept on purpose to retain
the used character. Each one is unique, please enjoy the unique character of
REKROW materials which are worn-in over time and aged naturally.
All photos are for style purposes only. We cannot specify the discoloration or
damage to the fabric. Also, please note that we do not accept exchanges or
returns.
REKROW “h” Product
The "h" represents the "hour" and the “human”.
For the countless “hours” it takes the “human” to collect, assort, unravel and
unpick the workwear, then resew and transform it into our new product by hand.
REKROW will build and preserve a Circular Manufacturing platform that will
pass on this region's skills and know-how for the future by imparting the
manufacturing story of WORKER.
The Material
The No.1 material used for the REKROW garment originates from denim workwear
garments that have been worn for a year in the shipyards of Setouchi. The
fabric is originally from “Kaihara denim”, a local world-class Japanese
quality denim mill. The materials used reflect the works of welders, riveters,
and painters, and no two are alike. We carefully unpick each and every garment
and repurpose them. Fading, discoloration, stains, broken threads, and holes
are created naturally. All materials are unique. We dare to care to highlight
their hard work.
The Unraveling
We collect all the workwear and then begin manually unpicking and unraveling
each by hand, step by step. A single jacket can be divided into 25 parts, a
pair of pants has over 20 parts.
The “unraveling” process can take up to five times longer than the “sewing”
process.
The “unraveling” process reveals a new shade and contrast that was previously
hidden and changed over time.
With each step of the “Unraveling” process, you can feel the value created by
time.
Each unique piece of the garment has been combined individuality one by one by
craftsmen. Good things take time.
The Product
All the workwear made, worn, and collected for the REKROW products is produced
in a small area of Fukuyama city. This area has many skilled manufacturing
factories that have continued for generations and can handle all areas from
fabric, sewing, processing, and finishing.
It is rare in Japan to discover one region where all the manufacturing can be
completed in a single area. Through cooperation and harmony in a small region,
such a platform is made perfect for our regeneration and circularity. Real
skills, true know-how.
REKROW products from Hiroshima are made with users' sensibilities in mind.
