READYMADE

Readymade

Started in 2013 by Yuta Hosokawa, Osaka-based label READYMADE takes vintage military tent and duffle bag fabrics and re-works them into modern, one-of-a-kind outerwear and accessories. With an overarching theme of “world peace”, Hosokawa uses the original military material in a way that causes both the viewer and the wearer to think about the juxtaposition of violence and high fashion in times of peace. All military fabric is used vintage or deadstock cotton, often stenciled with the names and serial numbers of the original owner, ensuring that no two pieces are alike.
