JAPAN BLUE is a leather product series developed by KNOX, combining leathercraft techniques with expressions of blue that evoke hon-ai indigo. Using its own dyeing technique and micro-check embossing, it presents a color theme and Japanese approach to material expression that differ from typical series centered on leather materials.
