Studio D'Artisan started in 1979 in Osaka. It's one of the "Osaka Five" - a group of game-changing denim brands.
These folks brought back old-school weaving methods. Why? Because they make jeans that look and feel amazing.
They're famous for using shuttle looms and hank dyeing. These techniques give their denim a special touch you can't find elsewhere.
Is it worth visiting?
You'll see top-notch Japanese denim up close. It's a chance to buy jeans that'll last for years.
The staff knows their stuff and can explain the craft. You might even catch a glimpse of the production process.
But heads up: Their prices reflect the quality, so it's not cheap. And the shop might be crowded - it's pretty popular!
If you're into denim or just love well-made things, don't miss it. It's a slice of Japanese craftsmanship you can wear home.
