Studio D’Artisan may not be in the same league as the mighty Sugar Cane or Samurai jeans but they are worth a second look if Sugar Cane and Samurai or out of your range.

Studio D’Artisan has been producing denim of the highest order since 1979. The original architect of vintage denim production using disused shuttle looms, Studio D’Artisan is one of the worlds finest Japanese denim producers.

Products are designed in Osaka whilst the production takes place in the Okayama prefecture, the traditional cotton weaving area famous for its indigo dying and denim production.

Studio D’artisan as a brand is defined by the pig (buta), finding its way into the designs of all products with an element of humour.
