DUSTNATION was a Japanese knitwear brand launched in 2021 by art director Tetsuya Nagato and designer/creative director Kazuki Kuraishi. Centered on jacquard knits, it developed mainly cotton knitwear featuring high-precision graphic designs, in collaboration with domestic factories and artisans. The brand concept was “combat clothing for facing a broken world with positivity.” From the 2024 summer season, it was rebranded as its successor brand, out stand IN, and activities under the DUSTNATION name have ceased.
