Why We Love It

Solely focused on pants for 70 years — that technical capability is no joke. "Denim that goes with a jacket" and "refined easy pants" — the "just-right high quality" that adults were seeking is here. Beyond the beauty of sewing, the silhouette when worn is at a moving level. The experience of having your own size pants tailored through custom order is irresistible adult play for clothing lovers.

PROFILE About the Company / Workshop

In Kojima, Kurashiki City — known as a domestic jeans production area — Nakajyu Co., Ltd. was born in 1953. From postwar reconstruction to today, as a specialty maker of casual pants including denim, the company has supported the product making of luxury brands and fashion brands in Japan and abroad. The pattern and sewing technologies polished while continuing to respond to advanced demands have become Nakajyu's major asset.

What the company cherishes is "made-in-Japan craftsmanship pursuing the best while protecting and enhancing tradition." Paying attention to detail at each cutting, sewing, and processing stage — combining plump wearing comfort and beautiful silhouettes. Building an integrated management system from cutting to shipping — controlling quality, delivery time, cost, and safety at high levels. That accumulation has connected to today's trust.

With this production background, Nakajyu launched the original brand "ONO+8186" as a place to deliver its technology directly. The brand name combines the sound of the place name "Kojima Ono" and the will to communicate Japanese production to the world. The brand theme is to propose bottoms combining the casualness of daily wear and the dignity that can be matched with a jacket.

In recent years, the brand has expanded its activities — the new collection "ONO+BLU" centered on denim, custom orders at the online store, and new material and design proposals through crowdfunding. Leveraging the strength of the Kurashiki Kojima production area, the brand will continue to communicate "production only we can do" to the world going forward.
