Collection: Big John

Big John was founded in Japan in 1940. It is one of the oldest and most respected denim brands in Japan and is known for producing high-quality jeans using traditional Japanese techniques.

There were some companies that produced denim fabric in Japan before Big John, but these companies were focused on manufacturing uniforms for railroad workers and factory workers.

Big John was instrumental in popularizing denim jeans made with Japanese denim, which eventually led to the rise of the Japanese denim industry.

The original Big John head shop is located in Kojima, Okayama. Known as the birthplace of Japanese Denim, the area is home to many more of the country's most famous denim brands; such as Momotaro, Iron Heart, Japan Blue, and Studio D'Artisan.

Big John has since expanded to other locations in Japan and around the world, but the Kojima store remains a key part of the brand's history and heritage.

In addition to denim jeans, Big John also produces a range of other apparel and accessories. Their product lineup includes jackets, shirts, T-shirts, sweatshirts, and accessories such as hats, belts, and bags.

Like their jeans, Big John's apparel and accessories are known for their high-quality materials, attention to detail, and traditional Japanese craftsmanship. They often incorporate Japanese motifs and traditional patterns into their designs, giving their products a unique and distinct style.
