The Story

FUTABAYA
from kimono
from tokyo
with craftsmen hartFUTABAYA has succeeded the skills of Edo dyeing developed by our predecessors since it was founded in 1920. Adhering to the skills of our craftsmen, we have been offering “Tokyo Some Komon (Edo Komon)” and “Edo Sarasa.”We hope to communicate the “world of dyeing” woven from Edo to many people in the present age. We hope to challenge the new possibility of dyeing.

It is our sincere hope that you will feel the traditional skills succeeded without break, and living today in the 21st century.
