Brand Profile

[Established year] 2001

〈A design that can be enjoyed by people aged 3 to 100〉
mintdesigns regards fashion as a kind of product design, and has been engaged in a wide range of activities with the aim of "designing to enrich everyday life." Taking advantage of the uniqueness of the textiles we develop, we are actively collaborating with other industries, such as tableware, furniture, and Japanese confectionery, in addition to clothing, to expand the scope of our design. The concept of this brand is to propose the possibility of "fashion" that is not synonymous with "trend".
