INTRODUCING: KAZUO

Kazuo is the creation of Little Tokyo, Los Angeles resident and this current spring collection is his debut. Joel K became influenced early on by Japanese street fashion but was always finding typical Japanese cuts too slim for his non-Japanese build. He chose to bring this influence into his brand while cutting the clothes in a slightly more forgiving fashion. The collection keeps things very focused with minimal designs and a simple color palette, but the minor details are what perfect the garments. We are looking forward to whatever else Joel K is able to come up with in the future, in particular an upcoming (fall 2008) collaboration with Unholy Matrimony's Brett Westfall!
