Studio D’Artisan

Studio D'Artisan, or SDA, started out in 1979 and has become a pioneer of Japanese 'Ametora'. It is known for core lines of no nonsense, classic cuts and fabrics, and it has kept hold of the ethos that got it going. It also isn't afraid to push at the boundaries, with some next level constructions that stand out from the classics. There's a playful side too, best seen in the trademark 'Two Pig' logo, which goes down well with aficionados and devotees. The official store sells Japanese selvedge denim, jeans, jackets, tops and accessories, and SDA has four brands under its wing. A good name to know if you like your denim well made and a bit cheeky.
