Japan is where a large part of the Up There buy has always come from. Not as a theme, but because the country's small mills and factories have kept alive techniques that were abandoned almost everywhere else.

That shows up in different ways across the brands we stock. Kapital reworks indigo and boro techniques into pieces that look genuinely unlike anything else. Needles rebuilds vintage garments into new ones. orSlow reproduces mid-century American workwear on original machinery. A.PRESSE approaches the same period through the lens of tailoring. Nanamica and Beams Plus sit at the cleaner, more wearable end.

Sizing is the one thing to watch. Japanese labels generally run one to two sizes smaller than European or American equivalents. Size guides are on every product page, and our Melbourne store carries most of these brands to try on.

Looking for something specific?

Do Japanese clothing brands run small?

Generally yes, by one to two sizes against European and American equivalents. A Japanese large often fits like an international medium. Every product page carries measurements, and the Melbourne store holds most of these brands to try on.

Why is Japanese clothing more expensive?

Small production runs, domestic manufacturing, and techniques that need people rather than machines. Natural indigo dyeing, shuttle-loomed fabric and hand-finishing all cost more per unit than the alternatives.

Which Japanese brand should I start with?

Nanamica or Beams Plus if you want something immediately wearable. orSlow for workwear basics. Kapital or Needles if you want the pieces the country is actually known for.

Does Up There ship Japanese brands internationally?

Yes, we ship worldwide from Melbourne. Some labels carry regional distribution restrictions, and where that applies it is noted on the product page.
