reminiscence

Good evening. This is Ikeda.

As I was thinking about the title , I remembered how my grandmother would pick me up from nursery school and pick me up from elementary school soccer because both of my parents worked.

I don't remember it all that clearly, but I think she bought me some sweets at a nearby convenience store on the way home from nursery school.
Thanks to that, I had become acquainted with the convenience store clerk.

Unlike me, who only have memories that can't be used for anything, at satou, we incorporate our own memories into designs and fabrics, creating products that can be considered works of art rather than items.

Among them, the main items of 22SS are Hatake fatigue jkt and Grandfather shirt blouson.

Both use original quilted fabric with hemp leaf patterns.
The quilt fabric is based on the quilt tapestries that the designer's grandmother and mother used to make by hand.

Grandfather shirt blouson is based on the shirt blouson that the designer's grandfather usually wore, and Hatake Fatigue JKT is designed based on the fatigue jacket, inspired by the work clothes his grandfather wore in the fields.

Just by looking at the written description, I can't imagine that it is such a good item.
However, at Satou, it becomes a wonderful piece of clothing and takes shape.

I hope that when you look at the items with this background in mind, you will be moved by emotions that you cannot experience anywhere else.

Of course, you can also see Satou's sincere manufacturing in other details.

I'd like you to see it directly, so I'll keep it simple.
Organic cotton lining, sloping buttonholes, arrow stitching at the neck, and wide belts at the waist and back...
There is no sense of compromise, down to the smallest detail.

Although this is a brand that is particular about making products without compromise, they are not overly assertive and have a deep sense of support that will help you get by, so I think you will be able to use them for a long time.
The more time you spend with them, the more their texture will grow, and you may be able to build a relationship similar to that of grandparents who have spent a long time together.

Why not spend your time with satou items that carry memories behind them?
