TALKING ABOUT THE ABSTRACTION: A Brief History

Founded in Japan in 2001 by designer Naoki Ichihara, TALKING ABOUT THE ABSTRACTION is known for combining vintage culture with modern technology and unconventional construction. 

The brand often reinterprets denim, workwear, and vintage garments through unique techniques such as transfer printing, creating pieces that look familiar but feel completely new. Its philosophy is based on giving equal value to old culture and modern ideas, then blending them into contemporary everyday clothing.

Over the years, the brand expanded beyond Japan, presenting collections in Paris, New York, and other international markets.Today, TALKING ABOUT THE ABSTRACTION remains recognized for its experimental, unisex approach to Japanese casualwear.
