Kapital Hand Painted Anorak by FFF Postal Service

Kapital was a small operation dedicated to reproducing American denim. Like many of his predecessors, Toshikiyo had no background in design or manufacturing. Instead, while attending university in Kobe, Toshikiyo acquired an infatuation for karate. His interest soon led him to the United States where he happened to stumble upon American denim for the first time. After returning to Japan, Toshikiyo moved to Kojima, Kurashiki—often regarded as the denim capital of Japan, hence the name “Kapital”—to begin studying the intricacies of denim manufacturing. After studying the trade for several years, Toshikiyo opened his first factory in 1984 and, soon after, opened his first storefront for denim and vintage garments in 1995. It wasn’t until 1996 that Toshikiyo released his first original denim line, aptly titled “TH.”
