We’ve received many questions asking, “What exactly is the pre-order event?” So today, I’d like to give a quick introduction.

Each year around June, we travel with samples to Sendagaya, Osaka, and Fukuoka. It’s a simple concept: you try on the samples, and if something feels right, you place an order. We only produce the quantities that are pre-ordered—so these items will not be available in stores. That makes each piece quite special.

The items are usually ready around November, and we ask that you pick them up when they’re finished.

We offer unique pieces made with high-end materials rarely used in our regular collections, including sweatshirts that push the limits of what TSURIAMIKI can do—thanks to the skills and passion of a new generation of craftspeople. In terms of garment design, too, these are bold and experimental ideas we typically don’t explore in our main line.

These are pieces we hope will be carried into the future—what we call “Future Vintage.” We’ve shared more on YouTube, so if you have a moment, we’d be happy if you gave it a watch. Thank you as always for your continued support.
