The Origin of Man.
dan genten is the men’s line of genten, centered on leather bags and small leather goods, launched by Kuipo Co., Ltd. in Omotesando, Tokyo, on February 11, 2006. Its range included bags and wallets as well as clothing, hats, and belts. Its approach to making products avoided excessive detailing and coatings, emphasizing the natural texture of leather and the changes it undergoes over time. Under the keyword “the origin of man,” it proposed a lasting relationship between people and the things they use, but as of 2026, it is no longer being developed as an independent new line.
