FUNG is a Japanese apparel brand from Kumamoto. It was launched in 2000 by designer Yuichiro Sei, who is also a surfer, against a background of interest in the culture, landscapes, history, and style of the American West Coast. The brand name is a coined term combining “Fun” and “Good.” It offers casual wear centered on T-shirts and is characterized by hand printing, with Sei handling everything from design and plate making to printing. It translates sensibilities and culture gained through everyday life and surfing into pop, simple graphics.

KUBRICK is a block-type collectible figure line introduced in 2000 by Japanese toy maker MEDICOM TOY. MEDICOM TOY founder Tatsuhiko Akashi developed its basic design with a former LEGO employee. The line translates characters and motifs from film, television, comics, anime, games, music, and art into simple figures with movable parts. It is characterized by 100%, 400%, and 1000% size variations, blind boxes, limited-edition products, and licensed collaborations, and served as the prototype for BE@RBRICK, a derivative introduced in 2001.

Masculine ruggedness and “Wild & Simple”

Dedicated to Those Who choose to be extraordinarily unconventional

A fusion with simple and functional clothing

A new kind of standard watch for adult men with the discernment to see what truly matters.

The brand was launched in Spring/Summer 2000 by former stylist Chikako Hirokawa and her close friend Rie Kubota, beginning with handmade bags and remade T-shirts. “dahl'ia” is the name of a flower native to Mexico. The name was chosen because its sound resonated with an image of a cute girl who evokes the excitement of childhood, yet has a slightly wicked edge. Always based on “LIFE STYLE,” the brand creates clothing by capturing the moment each season through styles it likes, such as vintage, ethnic, simple, and girly. Another brand, “pompon,” emerged from the production process of “dahl’ia,” along with new ideas.

Adult casual and comfort

Clothes you can always keep close at hand and wear comfortably for a long time, even straight from the wash.
