KATO’ (often written with the apostrophe) is a premium denim and apparel brand created by designer Hiroshi Kato, rooted in Japanese denim heritage with modern comfort and design.
The brand blends classic vintage style with innovative denim technology, making it a unique option in the higher-end denim world.
Inspired by classic garments, KATO’ focuses on combining the modern need for comfort with the love for vintage pieces. Taking inspiration from hardware, stitching and even machinery used and blending it with innovative blends of fabric and new fits, KATO is dedicated to creating timeless pieces that you’ll hold on to for years.
Design DNA:
Inspired by vintage American workwear and classic Levi’s, re-imagined with Japanese fabric expertise and contemporary silhouettes.
“We’ve developed signature materials like our 4 Way Stretch that consists of combining traditional Japanese denim and a 4 Way Stretch material allowing us to create the most comfortable pair of selvedge jeans from day one of wearing them. That innovation also led KATO’ to develop Denit®, a new knit material that looks like denim but essentially feels like loungewear giving you comfort and style wherever you go.”
Who is KATO’ Denim For:
You want authentic Japanese denim heritage
You want a modern comfortable fit
You appreciate selvedge details, quality stitching, and evolving fades
KATO’ also extends into other garments. Such as denim jackets, chore shirts, and woven pieces, made with the same vintage-meets-modern ethos and quality attention.
