Lower priced for a reason.
MUJI was established in 1980 as a private-label brand of the Japanese retailer Seiyu. The lifestyle brand offers a wide range of products and services for everyday life, primarily clothing and fashion accessories, household goods, and food. Its approach to manufacturing is based on “selecting materials,” “reviewing processes,” and “simplifying packaging,” and it follows a practical philosophy of eliminating waste and providing what is needed in the form needed. In 1983, it opened its first directly operated store in Aoyama, Tokyo, and it now operates around the world.

Concept

Not “this is what I want,” but “this will do.”

MUJI Labo began in 2005 as a laboratory dedicated to exploring MUJI’s approach to making basic clothing, and was renewed for Fall/Winter 2024 after revisiting the origins of its apparel-making. Unlike MUJI’s standard apparel, it explores the characteristics of materials and traditional production methods, and is distinguished by clothing and fashion accessories finished with care down to the details. Through seasonal material development and experimentation in production, it connects the knowledge gained to future MUJI products. Its offerings focus on clothing and also include shoes, bags, and household goods. Among the product lines that support MUJI’s broader range of clothing, food, and housing products, it leads the development and testing of apparel.
