Indigo dyeing is a natural dye that produces vibrant colors and has a variety of physical and mental benefits. Vintage clothing from high-end and designer brands can be transformed into one-of-a-kind pieces just for you.
TATRAS CONCEPT STORE will be hosting a pop-up event by "BOKU WA KUMA," which breathes new life into vintage clothing from high-end and designer brands by remaking it using the natural dye of indigo.
As a select shop, TATRAS CONCEPT STORE has launched the "SOCIAL GOOD PROJECT," considering what actions it can take to have a positive impact on society, including the global environment and local communities.
"BOKU WA KUMA" is about bringing an end to the era of excessive mass production and mass consumption, and returning to a human scale once again. Rather than throwing away clothes because they are no longer worn, the brand concept is to blend sustainable, fashionable clothing, which has been given new value and warmth through the indigo dyeing technique, into modern lifestyles. As a brand that embodies sustainability (sustainability that is kind to the environment and society) and upcycling (new value through recycling), we have decided to open this pop-up store.
